"Dedication" (Chapter 3 Image 25)

ca. 1934. "Dedication" - multiple exposures of nude man walking right to left across frame. According to the book "A Turbulent Lens," Haffer posed her husband, Norman Randall, in her studio with neutral backdrop and backlighting. A Graflex revolving magazine holder was used to take multiple exposures on several films and those resulting images were then sandwiched together. "Dedication" was used as the front and back inside covers for "Abundant Wild Oats," a book combining the poetry of Elizabeth ("Bettie") Sale and Haffer's photography. The book was never published although a prototype was made. (Virna Haffer Collection) (Bullock: A Turbulent Lens, p. 21, 126. 138, 117)

"Tilley-O" (Chapter 15 Image 178)

ca. 1928. "Tilley-O"- multiple exposures of a smiling woman in sepia toned and B & W. This circa 1928 photograph shows exposures of the same woman placed in a circular format with what may be a mound of thickish black hair in the center of the circle, thereby either hiding the woman's actual hair or was an enlargement of her hair.
