And well into the 20th, and for all I know, the 21st. It's always
been a rule of newpaper layout that people in pictures shouldn't look
off the page, so at least in my college journalism days, it was
common to "flop" pictures. Every so often, someone in the production
process who doesn't know better will flop a picture that shouldn't be
flopped, and thus mislead the reader into thinking traffic is going
the wrong way or a violinist is bowing with his left hand.
