No.
You has to find such pictures in books describing uniforms.
Most such books are about the cavalry.

If you turn on the TV now you can see them beating the crap out of each other in Warsaw at Euro 2012.... ;)

This book has just been published:

Szałądziński Karol Rościszewski Leszek:
Polsce i wszędzie służyć zawsze bede.
Mundur i broń Wojsk Wielkopolskich 1918/20.
Poznan 2012

price 30 - 35 zl.

It is only about the Wielkopolska Army, its uniforms and weapons.
Paperback with 112 pages.
Contains 45 watercolors in color based on photographic and textual sources from the period and descriptions.
I have not seen it yet, but it seems to come close to an Osprey book on the subject.

Yes, it is not always easy to find a Polish bookshop willing to sell outside Poland.

Here is a link, where you can download some pdfs, with illustrations of same artist.
It is the pdfs at the bottom of the site.

David,
Have you tried Jadar Hobbies? Think they are in Warsaw; they have Polish and English on their website so navigation is fairly easy. They take Paypal and ship outside
Poland. I have ordered from them and they are good, fast, and reliable. They may have it, or they may be able to get it for you. http://www.jadarhobby.pl/
All The Best

David,
now, the book can be bought through Bookmaster.pl
As far, as I remember, you has earlier used that internet bookseller with succes.
If not, then I can say, it works ok.
