Antique Celluloid Album







The above images are from an antique ivory-colored celluloid album cover that was handed down through our family.  I will be posting the entire cover design at a later date, but thought the center portion was lovely enough to stand on its own.  Thanks for stopping by my blog!

Velvet & Celluloid Album



This worn, red velvet photograph album cover with celluloid ornament has seen better days and has long been separated from its pages. One can only imagine what wonderful items were once inside!

I've made the image of the back slightly larger than the front so it will be a bit more forgiving if you would like to print both covers; the original is a bit warped and as a result the covers are not mirror images.  I love the shield shape of this pretty album and hope you will, too.

Leather CDV Album Cover


I adore these small Gothic style leather CDV albums.  The first image in brown is the original color; the actual album is in tatters with a two missing glass rests.  It makes me smile to know that this sweet object will continue to be enjoyed.



Antique Frame Border


This antique image is from the reverse side of a cabinet card.  It frames the logo of photographer W.P. Jackson, of Tacoma, WA and was included in an album that was a gift from Lyneen. Thanks, Lyneen!
