Abstract
Using a holographic system, where the source beam is composed of two beams incoherently superimposed, it is possible to make use of the fact that the picture-sensitive medium that registers the information is able to record several holograms simultaneously or one by one and make them to interfere at the reconstruction step. This is in fact nothing new, except when each hologram is recorded with different state of polarization. Then we can watch interference between them independently of the polarization state used during the recording step, since any reconstructed hologram always preserve the state of polarization of the recovering wave.
