upside down negatives.
.
The negative has been flipped. usually from side to side. Also, if it was moving picture, then the technique is to have back projection, where the movie is projected onto a screen, then recorded from the opposite side.
Many times, you will see this on movies that have titles or letters on vehicles, aircraft, etc. I was watching an episode of "Ice Pilots, NWT" a couple of days ago, and the Canadian Registration letters on the civil aircraft were backwards.

it is a flopped negative. A negative has a shiny side and an emulsion side. You can make a perfect picture from a flopped negative, but it will be a mirror image.
The reversal is not noticeable, unless there is wrting or a rifle in the picture.

One of the most well known is the photo of Billy the Kid with the Winchester with loading gate on the wrong side. From that photo somebody came up with the nickname "the left handed gun" that was applied to a feature about Billy.
