The George C. Griffin Photograph Collection VAC002 contains 877 unique images collected by George Griffin. The photographs in this collection relate to all aspects of Georgia Tech and its history, including students, faculty, administrators, alumni, sports, traditions, and buildings. The photographs range in date from ca. 1885-1987 and offer an unique perspective on the people and places from Georgia Tech's past. Nearly 600 of these images are available for online viewing.

The digital portion of this collection was developed in the 1990s and the photographs were scanned at a very low resolution. The digital collection includes item numbers whose images are missing or unscanned. The missing photographs are now presumed to be numerical processing errors for which no image exists. There is no evidence that items ever existed for these numbers. Missing photographs are noted by a graphic that reads "This photograph is missing from the Griffin Collection and is not available." A few of the original photographs were not scanned, although the information is listed in the digital collection. These unscanned photographs are noted by a graphic that reads "The digital image for this photograph is currently unavailable."

The physical collection includes black and white photographs, color photographs, negatives, prints, and some original artwork. Most of the materials are identified, however there are many undated items.
