    There's an auction of French artifacts. It's mostly firearms and swords, but there are also helmets, uniforms, and other pieces of equipment from the Napoleonic period, a few from just before, and later. The auction catalog has some very nice pictures of the pieces and I think it could provide some useful reference material.
