The Georgia Tech Alumnus Magazine Photograph Collection contains black and white photographs from the Georgia Tech Alumnus, 1927-1975. The collection includes photographs used in the magazine as well as unused images left over from photo shoots. The unused photographs usually are similar to the images that appeared in publication.

The photographs in this collection were taken to illustrate articles informing alumni of Georgia Tech events and as such they document life at Georgia Tech--students, athletics, events, faculty, research, alumni, and the Tech campus. The Georgia Tech Alumnus usually had at least one photographer on staff, or contracted, so the majority of the photographs were taken specifically for the magazine. Although most of the images are individual prints, there are a few contact sheets as well.

With the exception of two photos of the Alumni-Faculty House committee that appear in the new version of the magazine in 1975, all the photographs are from the original publication known as the Georgia Tech Alumnus.
