It's a tin type photo... the writing is reversed as it is essentially a negative.
 
Happy to see I'm not the only one that plays with dolls! Love the "wow" vs. the backwards Polaroid.
 
Actually the "wow" is backwards also... since the letters w & o look the same forward as they do backwards. Thanks for looking.
 
I believe it's called a palindrome - A word that is spelled the same forwards or backwards. Could be wrong on that. Very creative use.
 
You are right in calling it a palindrome... but BOB is a palindrome, yet does not look the same when letters are reversed - mirror image. Finding those letters and words is the trick... especially when you only have a few of those letter blocks! :surprised:
 
Holy cow! I totally missed that part. It obviously took some thought (a skill set I sometimes lack!).
