Not really!
This Civil War era carte de visite (cdv) actually shows an early form of trick photography.
The plate was double exposed and captured the subject in two different locations.
Photographed by Cremer's Portrait Rooms out of Philadelphia, PA.

Gee..............I just would have thought maybe they were just *twins*. How can you tell that by these? That is Amazing !!!
It just jumps out to me. Two of the reasons-- the odd non- interaction between the "two" and the difference in light/ dark on "sides" of the image.
I have several of these and can post some more examples if interested.

Expert eye there Scott! Very interesting.
Thanks-- appreciate your comment.
Here is another interesting double exposure image with a photographer with camera:

Thanks cultcha and official!

The only place I can possibly see a diff. in shadows is on the bowler (& I'm not so sure there !). And then, if they are using the same set, why would they change the angle of the lighting to a noticeable degree ? I think they are 3 meter tall giant aliens studying designs for crop-circles or designs they can plant that point toward Egyptians being the 1st to discover the Americas after the already present "Indians". LOL !!
Not sure what you are talking about-- difference in shadows, change of light angle or aliens...

Scott, you're no fun tonite ! I was referring to your remark about, "---- the diff. in light/dark on "sides" of images ". Not referring to the angle of light & shadows ? If I have to explain my other comments, you need to take humour classes ! LOL !!
I want to see them as sextuplets.
I haven't seen anything beyond a "twin" image.
scott
Thanks for looking treasures.

Just added photo #1 of another one of these "twin" or trick photos.
This example shows the disconnected "twins" again and probably better illustrates the dark/ light differences between the two exposures as they were not timed exactly the same.
Here is a link on the subject as well:

Thanks for posting these interesting photos. Like you, I could tell from the first picture, there's a line right down the middle separating the two images.
