Re: Two Faced Girl Dancing To A Phonograph...
You would get those "ghostly" type images from old photographs because the exposure times of the films and photographic plates of the day were very long...so if a subject did not stay still, That is what you got.
The phonograph looks like an Edison 1902-1904 Model "A" Home (Long Bedplate,Late case.)
