Photo Frame and Mini Polaroid Base
Humber Archival Photograph Collections
The inspiration behind our idea to create a photo frame to represent the Archives comes from the importance of our photographic collections to telling the history of Humber College. We have photographs going back to the founding and of the College (and some which represent the pre-College uses of the lands on which Humber resides).
We would encourage you to examine some of our archival photographs. Some can be found online on the Archives website. We also have significant holdings as part of archival donations from David Lui, Jim Brady, and Jackie Robarts. We encourage you to find your favourite photo, whether from our archives or your personal archives, and print your own 3D frame, using the design above, to display it.
Although photographs are only one of many different types of archival materials Humber collects, we hope you will agree after exploring these collections that "sometimes a photograph is worth a thousand words".
Print Your Own Polaroid Picture Frame
This photo frame and stand has room to store a 5"x7" photo on each side, with the top of the frame being removable. If you choose to print this, it is recommended to sand down the holder for the photo frame (yellow in the preview), locator pegs for the frame itself and corresponding holes as they are too tight when initially printed and may be difficult to remove without damaging when put together. The mini Polaroid camera used as the base is by nicklievendag and downloaded from Thingiverse. The holder for the photo frame (yellow in the preview) fits into the slot where the film tray in the Mini Polaroid sits.
