I don't have the (deprecated) code handy, but it should be in the Codex (codex.wordpress.org)

It's a technique from older versions of WP: before the_post_thumbnail(); one workaround was to bring your site's own RSS feed into its loop, stripping out only the thumbnail for display from the feed.

It was awkward, but it worked.
