Which achieves the above object.

[0007] A commemorative album of the present invention is obtained by the above method, and has a cover, a book on which a subject is placed, and a binding device for binding the ends of the cover and the book to each other. Is achieved.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A commemorative album 1 of the present invention is shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 3, the cover 2 includes a cover 2, a book 4 on which the subject 3 is placed, and a binding device 5 for binding the ends of the cover 2 and the book 4 together. Cover 2 is prepared in advance,
For example, in the case of a commemorative album 1 for a meeting, characters, symbols 2a, etc., indicating the contents of the meeting are entered.
Color and the like are appropriately arranged.

The book paper 4 on which the subject 3 is placed is usually manufactured as follows. A plurality of photographs of the subject 3 are placed on the mount, and then the mount on which the photographs are arranged is color-copied to obtain a book 4.

[0010] The mount may be plain or colored, or in the same manner as the cover 2, may have characters, patterns 3 in advance.
Those described in a and the like may be used. On this mount,
The photograph in which the subject 3 is taken is cut out to an appropriate size, or placed as it is and glued or pasted with an adhesive tape or the like. A plurality of copies of the mount on which the photograph is arranged are color-copied to obtain a book 4 as shown in FIG.

If there are many photos to be placed on the backing paper,
May be plural. The copy may be made on one side of the book paper 4 or on both sides. In addition, various information 3 relating to a meeting or the like or the subject 3 is stored in the book 4.
b may be placed.

The commemorative album 1 of the present invention may have a back paper 6 arranged on the back side of the book 4. The back paper 6 can be prepared in advance similarly to the cover 2, and, for example, characters, figures, colors, etc. are described according to the meeting or the like.

Further, the commemorative album 1 of the present invention may be provided with a transparent protective sheet 7 for protecting the cover 2 or the back paper 6.

When the required number of copies of the book 4 have been produced, the protective sheet 7, the cover 2, the book 4 and the back paper 6 are bound with the binding device 5 at the ends, and the commemorative album 1 of the present invention is produced. Is obtained.

The external shape of the commemorative album 1 is arbitrary, and its size is not limited.
The size may be A4 size, B4 size, or A3 size. In that case, horizontal binding may be used,
Vertical binding may be used. For example, in FIGS. 1 to 3, the A4 size protective sheet 7 is used, and the A3 size cover 2, the book 4 and the back paper 6 are folded in two.

As the binding device 5, an elastic resin or metal binding device is used, and the end portions of the protective sheet 7, the cover 2, the book 4, the back paper 6, etc. are elastically pressed to be bound. Alternatively, a stopper such as a stopper pin or a binding string, an adhesive, or the like may be used.

The commemorative album 1 of the present invention obtained in this way can be produced in a relatively short time, for example, within one hour if there are about 200 participants. Can be distributed to people. Each participant can know each person or an acquaintance by seeing a copy (subject 3) of the photograph posted in the commemorative album 1. Therefore, instead of the conventional commemorative photo, it is not necessary for each person to organize the photo into an album, which is very convenient, and the user can know the whole atmosphere of the meeting.

[0018] For example, in a commemorative album for a wedding ceremony, the main paper may be constituted by arranging subjects in a story-like manner or in a sequence. For example, in addition to the entire photo of the bride and groom, a group photo of the relatives of the two families, a photo of the parents, the background of the bride and groom, the progress of the wedding, and the like may be sequentially arranged.

FIG. 4 is a process chart showing a method for manufacturing a commemorative album of the present invention. In the above embodiment, after taking a photograph of the subject, the photograph (10) is arranged on a mount and designed (11), and then copied (12) to obtain a book, which is filed and (13) an album Is prepared. Here, this imaging signal may be printed up (17) using an imaging means (14) such as a video tape or a digital camera instead of a photograph, and may be designed on paper.

As another embodiment of the present invention, the commemorative album 1 can be produced using an image pickup means (15) such as a video tape or a digital camera and an image processing means (16) such as a computer. It can be implemented as follows.

First, an image processing means (16) such as a computer lays out imaging signals of a plurality of subjects taken by an imaging means (15) such as a CCD camera and a video. Next, the image signal of the image processing means (16) is transferred to the copying means (12) and copied by the copying means (12) to obtain a book. As the mount of the book, the mount described above can be used. Thereafter, the end of the obtained book 4 and the end of the cover 2 prepared in advance are bound by the binding device 5 to produce the commemorative album 1.

Further, a plurality of image signals of the image processing means (16) may be directly printed up (18) to obtain a real paper. After that, similarly, the obtained book 4 and the end of the cover 2 prepared in advance are bound by the binding device 5 to produce the commemorative album 1. Further, in the process of converting the image processing means (16) into an album file (13), an album may be produced simultaneously with the production of the book paper.

According to these methods, the arrangement (layout) of images can be performed on the computer screen, so that the commemorative album 1 can be manufactured in a very short time.

[0024]

According to the present invention, it is not necessary for each individual to organize photos and produce an album, and it is possible to understand the whole atmosphere of the day such as a meeting and to receive it in a short time after the meeting is over. It is very convenient. Also, it is possible to provide a commemorative album such as a wedding commemorative album at a lower price than before.

In particular, in a wedding or the like, an album has conventionally been purchased or distributed to the person and both family members or a drinker. However, since the album of the present invention can be produced at a low cost, attendees can enjoy it. Can also be distributed to the participants, and the affinity between the participants and the attendees and the attendees is enhanced.

Also, between the relatives and relatives, including the person concerned, can reconfirm the partner family, relatives, friends, etc. by looking at the album while the memory at the venue is new, and this will help to facilitate future relationships. In addition, the atmosphere of the meeting can be reconfirmed between the venue and returning home or immediately after returning home.
