These are not Autochrome images.
The technique is to stack the cameras one on another with separation filters
in front. The shutter is a drop shutter that is very similar to a focal
plane shutter but placed in front of the lens assembly. As it is dropped,
each camera gets exposure as the slot passes in front of the lens.
Cool design from 100 years ago

These old autochromes seem to be floating around the list these
