REALLY COOL POLAROID PHOTO, STORY, AND HISTORICAL FACT!

 
By GRANITE STATE P... at June 19, 2006 - 7:33pm | General

Help me figure this one out.

This could be a dream Case, with the most amazing photo I've ever seen, and I've seen a few!

It's an old Polaroid from 1979. You'll see some cracks in the scan, that's from age, it was about 15-20 years old before it was scanned.

I'll be writing out the complete story in 3 monthly parts, but for now you can check out the Pic and the first Article on the GSP website, here's a direct link to the page:

Tell me what you think, I'm happy to answer any questions, and even more happy to get all your opinoins.
Debunk Away!

I've looked at Hundreds of 'Ghost' photo's (of course not counting 'Orbs' that some think are Ghosts)
I have Never seen Anything like this!
Please let me know if you have. and check in next month for more on the History of the case, as I'll be getting more documents and history.
Thanks -Jim, GSP

Polaroid

I had Kevin Cogbill, of AREA Paranormal, Analyze the photo.
I'll be posting a link to the complete .PDF file of his report on my website www.granitestateparanormal.50megs.com
He and I will also be addressing that photo and others on the 'Chasers' Radio Show.
But the short of the report is, that the camera most likely malfunctioned. When the flash didn't fire, perhaps it was then turned to face a TV as it was checked by the photographer, thus capturing the image by the difference in the frames per second of the TV Display, and the camera shudder speed, which was automatic, and perhaps continued to fire.
I haven't had the chance to re-interview the photographer yet, so I'll be checking into it further.
Thanks allot for the interest!

Aside from the chance that

By MagnusApollo on July 5, 2006 - 6:31pm

Aside from the chance that it was done in photoshop to the image after it was scanned I'm at a loss for how it could have happened...

Hmm... Questions. 1979 polaroid camera... When the film was shipped in packages, how is it packaged? With metal film, or a paper with print on it? Do you by any chance know if this is the first picture taken on a new package of photofilm...
Theory...
I ask this wondering if chemicals could have seeped onto the first picture due to improper handling, and then when the camera takes the pitures and the film developer is activated (which develops the film in your hand) could have reacted with the ink... As picture is taken the ink on the surface which has the face on it is caught on the roller which pulls the picture from it's resting position and pulls it out the front of the camera. The roller having that image on there repeats the womans face each time it spin onto the picture, reason for the image becoming overlayed so much... it would be interesting to see what the second picture had on it... was there a blur or smudge matching the first phot where the face was no longer apparent, but still interferried with the image itself.

I know there are a lot of what-ifs and could be's in that theory. I'm going to try to do some searching on advertisments that would be around halloween in the 1979 (sadly i was about a year old, so I'm not quiet sure where to start). But, I'll even look into the package design and such for the Polaroids of that time period.
