Nach der Revolution emigrierte er in die USA, wo er unter in ärmlichen Verhältnissen in New York lebte und seine Bilder auch unter den Pseudonymen "Rod Palmer" und "A. Curtis" verkaufte. Sein bekanntestes Gemälde "Free as the wind", eine Darstellung amerikanischer Wildpferde in der Prärie, wurde in Amerika für verschiedenste Zwecke reproduziert. Provenienz: Aus der Sammlung des Russland-Schweizers und Kaufmannes Axel Streckeisen, Moskau und Berlin, der mit August Albo vor 1918 bekannt war; seitdem in Familienbesitz Berlin und Schweiz.
