The Lives of a Bengal Lancer (1935) is a sweeping, escapist adventure tale of three British officers of the 41st Regiment of the Bengal Lancers, stationed in northwest India. The Lancers were historically prominent as defenders of India’s North West frontier, notably the area of the Khyber Pass, inhabited by rebellious tribesmen.

The poster was in very good folded condition and has now been linen-backed.
