Has it featured in memes?

What springs to mind is either the photo of the Montparnasse train crash, although it doesn't have anybody on it, and the Conan Doyle 'fairies at the bottom of the garden' photo, but that has a whole person, not part of one, so I'm going to ask if the photo was taken before 1930?

Hint:this thing is not for the purpose of being a record of anything.
Roentgen's first X-ray?

Is it a photo made with normal light?

The "Napalm Girl"?
"Not a 'record' of anything" - is this a record sleeve?

A stamp?
[S] Not a stamp.
Is the profession of the human in the photo pertinent?
