History of the Student Photograph Albums

Beginning in the early 1850s students at the College of New Jersey, as Princeton University was then named, began to pose for photographic portraits. Many students then collected these portraits into bound albums to keep as reminders of their classmates and their years at Princeton. Faculty members' portraits were often included as well, and sometimes students collected portraits of staff. Some albums, for instance, contain photographs of university servants. In the first decade of this practice, some students chose to have engravings made rather than photographs, and these were included in the albums. Often the engravings were made from photographic portraits. As a result, some of the early albums include both engravings and photographs.

By the late 1850s it had become common practice for the student body to select and hire a professional photographer to travel to Princeton to take photographs for the class. In addition to each class member, the photographer also photographed faculty, certain staff members (caretakers and servants, for example), student groups and organizations, the campus, and Princeton Borough. The photographer provided students with a list, or catalogue, of photographs he had taken, and the students would select those images they wished to purchase and arrange in an album. Many students must have purchased an album from the photographer, or from the same store in Princeton, for there are many identical albums for the same years in the collection. A number of students kept these lists of photographs and placed them in scrapbooks they assembled to further document their years at Princeton. [For a list and reproductions of these catalogues, see: Historical Subject Files: Photographers. For scrapbooks, see: Scrapbook Collection.

With the introduction of the Kodak box camera in 1888, many students began to take their own photographs to place in albums. Yet while these albums contain many Kodak snapshots, a number of other photographic processes are represented: albumen prints, tintypes, cyanotypes, collodion, and gelatin prints. This variety indicates that, in addition to the Kodak film (which was sent back to the Kodak company to be developed), Princeton students were taking and developing their own photographs on campus; perhaps in the darkrooms in the John C. Green School of Science. At the same time, improvements to the half-tone printing process helped to bring about the rise of the published student yearbook with its professional portraits of students and faculty. These yearbooks in no way replaced the more informal albums. Students continued to create their own, and, if anything, some of these albums became more informal and more creative.

From the very beginning, Princeton students included a great variety of images in their albums. Photographs of fellow students, faculty, and the campus were especially common, but candid shots and posed scenes (or tableaux) in dorm rooms or on campus were also popular subjects. In addition to these images taken at Princeton, a number of students included photographs of subjects taken off campus. For example, a number of albums from the late 1890s and first years of the twentieth century contain photographs of the first modern Olympic games held in Athens in 1896, while others include photographs of friends and relatives, and snapshots from travels. Some albums also include photographs that postdate their creator's Princeton years; while some of these are of Princeton Reunions, other photographs depict family and friends. Fortunately, many of the subjects in these albums are identified with captions or notations, written either at the time the albums were made or later.

Description

Consists of 163 photographic albums created by Princeton University students. These albums, along with the other photograph collections in the University Archives, help document the experiences of students, faculty and staff at Princeton University. The albums date from 1851 to 1938, although the bulk date from the 1860s to the 1910s. New accessions are added regularly to the collection.

Arrangement

The Historical Photograph Collection's Student Photograph Albums Series is arranged chronologically by the student's class year or by the year of creation if the student's identity is unknown. Sometimes only an approximate date of creation can be determined, and some dates are followed by a plus sign (e.g., 1859+) indicating that materials date from after this point but that the exact dates are undetermined.

Access and Use

Physical Characteristics and Technical Requirements

Many of the albums in this collection are extremely fragile. Some of the bindings have broken, pages may be loose, and in some cases photographs have become loose. Researchers should use great care when examining them. Please examine only one album at a time, take the albums out of the boxes to look at them, and use padded cushions to support the albums on the desk. Please do not flip through an album; turn pages carefully and one at a time.
