Gurney - photos in the nineteenth century took a long time (up to 7 minutes) so necks & bodies were supported. People rest their arms on tables & chair arms, & lean on walls etc. Mothers squatted behind the chair baby was sitting in, while the photographer waved a toy.

Pinterest even has category for 'The Posing Stand - For helping LIVE people hold still! And another for Post Mortem photography!
