One woman, multiple views. Sigrid Lunde visiting SC in 1906. How did the photographer do this??

3 similar examples - 1st made during I WW photo of Polish great painter and writer Witkacy (Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz), 2nd of Marcel Duchamp (yes, that Duchamp) and 3rd - the earliest of that 3 - of Polish forgoten poet Wacław Szpakowski (1912)

Without advancing or changing the film in the camera, it looks like the photographer shot the 4 face shots of this lady....with the last shot being the back to you shot. All 5 shots onto one exposure.
What is funny is he changed around the hat, from one shot to the next, to make it look like different ladies with the same clothes on. (the feather is on different sides of the hat)

Thats right. They kept the same plate in and took multiple shots.

Left side front and back are not mirror images or the feather would be facing each other in the hat. AND the two rear ladies wouldn't be facing us if it were mirror image because the would be sitting shoulder to shoulder behind the front left and right ladies.

I kinda think he was shooting on glass negatives....took various shots, then overlaid them and developed it??? I am not an old photographer who works with glass negatives, but it might be possible?
via Facebook
I agree with you. Multiple shots on one negative would show overlay. I did this with a modern camera--it was not a convincing shot.

Chico Marx did the same thing once.

I only have a banged up copy. I'm not sure where the original is.
via Facebook
Is it too banged up to see clearly?

Yup, I'm not sure how old he was when he took it. The picture has some scratches and cuts on it. It broke in the frame when I moved.

Thanks for sharing it with me. :)
