I'm reaching completion of my written family history and I'm looking for relevant images to include. One of my ancestors was a City of London policeman 1857-1860 and I'd love to include a picture showing the uniform at the time. This was when they still wore the reinforced top hats before they changed to helmets in 1863. I've trawled the internet with no luck so I wonder if anybody can find me such an image.
The nearest I can find is the one in the Corporation of London's "Collage" site but they want a whole lot of money for it and I can't use the low-resolution version with the copyright watermark as shown here.
