Abstract

Summary This article looks at the development of album structures during the Victorian period, a time of innovation and expanding commercialism. Album evolution was influenced by advances in technology and the introduction of new materials coupled with the quest for new designs in which to mount the increasingly popular photographs, scraps and other ephemeral material. Spurred by the need to meet public demand it was necessary to develop techniques that could be mass produced using inexpensive materials. It discusses four categories of album style, providing descriptions of their structures and the materials used in their production and briefly concludes with the problems that are associated with their manufacture.
