A Last Look Back Antique Photographers Frame with Baby Photo and Old Key OOAK

Description

A Last Look Back...

This piece is just to die for! A sweet simple collage of vintage items, in a wonderful antique photographer's frame! True one of a kind item!

This frame is very unique, the back has metal brackets which close over a hinged back. It was used by photographers to showcase their work, and easily change photos without taking the whole frame apart. Very clever, and the only one like this I have ever seen. When I found it, I knew EXACTLY the photo from my collection that belonged inside.

This is a case of serendipity, as the photo I imagined in the frame was from the same city as the frame itself! When I saw that, I knew it was meant to be :)

The frame came with a stained cotton backing insert, which is the background of the collage. I added the grungy and faded baby photo, with text cut from an old book, over a small piece of stained old lace (which was exactly the right length), and an old metal key from my etsy treasure hunting!

The frame is 5 3/4" x 6 3/4" and 1" thick. It has a metal hook at the top for hanging. It does not have glass.

Great piece of instant ancestor memory art!

One of a kind, and from my treasure hunts and smoke free home :)
