EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative Christmas and New Year card, dated 1922, features the 105th Mahratta Light Infantry, a distinguished military regiment of the British Indian Army during the era of the First World War. The image captures the regiment's men in their traditional uniforms, assembled in a festive setting, likely in the garrison town of Karachi. The 105th Mahratta Light Infantry, also known as the "Fighting Fifty-Fifth," was formed in 1857, and its lineage can be traced back to the famous 105th Regiment of Foot, raised in 1824. The regiment saw action in numerous campaigns, including the Second Anglo-Afghan War, the Indian Mutiny, and both World Wars. The commemorative art on this card showcases the camaraderie and spirit of the soldiers, with some holding musical instruments, while others engage in playful banter. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the artwork add to the festive atmosphere, making this card a cherished keepsake from a bygone era. The card's inscription reads, "With the compliments and good wishes of the Officers, N.C.O.s, and Men of the 105th Mahratta Light Infantry, to their Friends and Connections." This heartfelt message underscores the importance of connection and community, even amidst the challenges and hardships of military life. This 105th Mahratta Light Infantry Christmas and New Year card is a fascinating glimpse into the history of military regiments during the early 20th century. Its topographical significance lies in its representation of the regiment's unique identity and the spirit of the holiday season during a time of global conflict.
