I see that the silver box was up for sale at Tenants Auction, Yorkshire, in July 2011. It was described as:
A Victorian Snuff Box, William Summers, London 1865, of rectangular form with incurved corners, engraved throughout with panels of leaves within strapwork, presentation inscribed .... to Bugle Major Caldwell By the Officers of the Leeds Rifles ... 10 Dec 1880, 7cm long, 3oz 15dwt.
The name is mis-spelt with an a instead of an o but that is a common mistake. Nicholas Coldwell was living in Leeds at the time and he was a Bugle Major so the box was definitly for him.
Re the photograph. It could be Nicholas Coldwell but I would like to know its provenance. Do you have any more details? I would appreciate a copy.
Regards
John
