Does anyone know what became of the original photo?

I’m wondering if I can get a hold of a scan of it, or even a first hand picture taken of the original. I want to try and get it restored by the person whose work I’ve posted links of (in a separate post).

Thanks!

        I was wondering if anyone had tried it with others. Having good quality pictures makes a huge difference! I know of a person that restores and colourizes old photos, and the results are seriously amazing.... more

      I am stunned. I had seen some version of this technology applied to several Old West characters, but, while impressive, it did not give the subjects of the photos the ability to totally change their position.... more
