The level of detail in this thing is amazing. I didn't even know they could take such high quality photographs back then.
This is the kind of image that olde tymie photos excelled at. Long exposure of stuff that doesn't move. Film chemistry is an excellent recorder of life, better than digital, under the right circumstances even 150 years ago.The level of detail in this thing is amazing.

What's really cool is in the second panel, Pointer 2A is showing a ghost image caused by a double exposure of a person. Just to the left of that, it looks like there was a cart there. So even with this, there's ghosting, but it just adds to the image if you ask me.
