Key to this story was the planning and installation of a major exhibition called GE Presents: The Mystery of the Albany Mummies, organized by the Albany Institute of History & Art and on view from September 21, 2013 until June 6, 2014"--Foreword.

In 1909, the mummies and coffin bottoms were purchased from the Cairo Museum by Albany Institute board member Samuel Brown, a purveyor of coffees, teas, and spices in Albany"--Albany Institute website.
