I asked the seller if he had any info on the photo, from his consignor. This is what he said -
"Not much else for information. It was kind of an odd situation that someone took some albumen photographs and glued them into some album pages with alot of law school students and New York City politicians and nothing at all baseball or fireman related for some reason. The people that had it last didn't know anything about it and just wanted to get rid of pages. Someone over time put all the pages in plastic sleeves. I did just remember that the album did have a dedication page that read- Thomas W. Cantwell Autograph Book 705 Broadway N.Y. January 1862. Hope this helps..Chuck"
