It's hard to believe that there was a time when digital photography didn't dominate the industry and every town and city had a photo lab where you would get your films processed.

In the last thirty years this industry has shifted and changed dramatically and the way we produce and consume photography is almost unrecognizable compared to the pre-digital days. In this new book titled More Than a Snapshot, Professor of Visual and Material Culture Annebella Pollen takes a deeper look into her personal collection of photo wallets, those paper folded slips that held your precious printed photos when you picked them up from the lab.

Through documenting this vast archive of analogue ephemera spanning from 1900s right up until the 1990s Annebella shines a light on the changing technologies within the photography industry and highlights the cultural shifts and graphic design trends through the humble photo wallet. We talked to Annebella about the making of this new book and her ongoing interest in ephemera and bric-a-brac.
