Technology Required to Create a Photo ID At MIT in 1977

I've been doing a giant scanning project using www.scancafe.com to blast through piles and piles of old slides, negatives, and prints. I'm just going through the results, and this one cracked me up. Look at what it took to take a photo for the school ID!. Hmmm, and does anyone know David W. Pomerantz? He was probably MIT class of 1981.
