T3 Design

GOK

From1938 until his death in 2008, Garman O. Kimmell created a unique photo Christmas card each year. When he started there was no one else doing anything like it. Each year he came up with a design concept and a verse or saying. He then shot the various components of the card design using his 4×5 negative viewfinder camera and then “assembled” the card using multiple exposures and masks in the darkroom. Many of the effects he created were fantastic considering the process he was using.

I have archived here low-res versions of all the cards. Enjoy!
