You might be right, but I just think we can’t say with any surety, since all of it might have a mundane explanation compared to six fingers or impossible shadows etc.
I would not want to say a clipboard that long has never existed, maybe they were a thing at the time of the photo.
Unless they were planning on cropping it out like on the picture with the guy maybe.
The poles could be further apart than they seem. The poles could be for a lighting rig for professional photos?
Her nametag might be blurred out for privacy reasons. Though it is not very blurred, might jsut be a problem with fous, after all it was purely manual back then wasn’t it?
Now I am not saying you aren’t right but there could be multiple explanations.
Could be like recruitment pictures? so multiple taken with different personnel?
Definitely seems to be slightly different perspective.
p.s. look at the chair shadow, the light does seem to come from the left and possibly the height of those poles. It would make sense for those. (They are also brighter lit at the top, with a sharp drop of in brightness) And a guy in the military taking professional photos might not have actually been a professional photographer, depending on what the photos were for.
p.s. Oh an also they could be close together to form one light source to create better shadows. It is a small room and if they were farther apart it might look weirdly lit.
