Anthony's Photographic Bulletin, May 28, 1887, Vol. XVIII, No. 10, p.310
 
With this issue of the Bulletin we give a photo-mechanical reproduction of the curious triple picture made by Colonel Pennington, at Fortress Monroe. It is the worthy Colonel playing chess, with himself as an antagonist, and also himself looking on. The manner of producing this interesting result will be a problem for many of our readers, and we shall be glad to hear how they would accomplish the result. Colonel Pennington will furnish his method of procedure in a future Bulletin.
