Kind of an interesting side note - I've also got a very large albumen of this same image (not for sale). Actually, the image is slightly different. Most notable is that Kemmler has his arms down, but it was obviously done in the same sitting (I have also seen a third variation of this same sitting some time ago). The albumen is in its original frame. The back of the framed picture has slats from a crate. You can make out the word "Pittsburg" on these slats. Most likely this had something to do with the Columbus team combining with Pittsburg in 1885.
