“SPIRIT FACES”
LIKE LIVING PERSONS. FOOTBALLERS AND BOXERS. LONDON, November 14. The newspaper? draw attention to the fact that many of the ‘‘spirit faces” in Mrs Deane’s photograph, which she states she obtained by exposing plates at the Cenotaph on Armistice Day, are those of famous living footballers and boxers. Mrs Deane admits that there is some similarity. “I can’t explain it,” she says “It is as much a mystery to me as to anyone. The spirits' would have known that X intended to take a photograph, and they may have built up a picture in the form of familiar faces, in order to produce a striking effect.”
