Cool Ron. Makes you wonder what camera was used.

Probably some sort of view camera, with 4x5 or 5x7 sheets.  Studio portraits were generally done at 2 or 3 exposures per person, and sheet film was more economical back in the day.  Although Aunt Margaret's may have been shot on a glass plate, judging from her outfit and hair.

Note that my headline under my screen name is "Curmudgeon-in-Training", so it's too late for me.  Smiley
