Description: This is one of the harder to find picture frame designs by Meier for Swid Powell. Meier designed four versions of his Ana frame, with this being the largest, and a much harder to find model. It is large, heavy, well constructed and quite functional. It houses photographs that are 5” x 3”. We have acquired the 1988 Swid Powell catalog insert marketing brochure which lists this as model number 3030.
