Hi Mac,

You are correct: the subject is a flat sign.  For "His Master," the
inner slit is question-mark-shaped and is horizontal in this image.
The outer slit was a line that has about a 30-degree bend in the
middle.  It is vertical in this image and crosses the question mark in
the center of the frame.  Both slits were stationary.  If I remember
correctly, the film plane was slightly angled relative to the plane of
the sign.  One problem with photographing signs close up is that my
tripods only go so high.  And on sunny days, the camera's shadow can
fall on the subject; angling the camera slightly often corrects this
problem.  Thank you for your interest.

Tom
