Ged,
If you've not already plundered this resource I'd advise you to check it out. I've been using it for the 18th C Neapolitans I'm collecting at the moment, but hadn't look at their 19th Century cousins til now

http://digitalcollections.nypl.org/collections/vinkhuijzen-collection-of-military-uniforms#/?tab=navigation&roots=13:bd07a6c0-c546-012f-6cf8-58d385a7bc34/75:860a2850-c54b-012f-43a0-58d385a7bc34

Some of the prints are by Knotel, but others are sketches. There are also files on other Italian States and the French and Austrians.
The Papal Zouave in blue with what appears to be a short colpack is very unusual to say the least!

[Emir of Askaristan]

This chap needs no introduction I'm sure

about the good old New York Library.......well done
