Can someone explain how one would 'play' or even need a staff with two clefs like this? :)

As opposed to say two staff-lines each with its own clef?

 

Why not ?

In fact, this staff is for the left hand of an organ piece. As Mats suggested it's probably to avoid a bunch of ledger lines (but I'm no organist).

But it could ceratinly be re-written in a more modern style (1 clef and some 8va).

Cheers,
