Here's what we knonw about the photo:

(Identified on back of print in light pencil as #18 in order to return back to the correct frame).This print was part of the box of framed photo's that Jean Triplett found in her house, the day after we retrieved all the prints from the storage unit.
Back of the framed photo is handwritten: Photography by Will A. Triplett approx. 1900 (reprinted 1990 by Tish Triplett)

On a cardboard label is typed:
Even in Will's time there were deliberate double exposures. Here he experimented with a barber in his shop.

A separate piece of paper is taped to the back of the photo, with the following handwriting:
