Anotations

Scope note:

Bound volumes containing assembled collections of two-dimensional visual works in any media. This refers to volumes populated with works, though these may have been originally constructed with blank pages that intended to have pictorial matter affixed, or assembled solely from plates of pre-printed or painted matter. For similar objects containing only photographs use "photograph albums."
