1970’s Polaroid – Still Got It After All These Years

Polaroid has still got it after all these years. As proof, and for some Friday fun, check out this 1970’s retro how-to video/advert/documentary. Still cool and amazingly poignant.

Polaroid – the original social network.
Snap a picture, show your friends = Create. Share Sustain.
Note the range, accessibility and the diversity.
Pretty impressive.

Reminder to check out the Impossible Project, plus one of my recent Polaroid snapshots after the jump.

    Some nice shots in that video. Goes to show that it’s not the camera.

    i love the kind of archaic simplicity that polaroids offer. still on the hunt for a good one. not an actual hunt. i’m sort of hoping that i’ll find one at a garage sale or buried in my attic. that’s the way they’re supposed to be found. buying one at a camera store just doesn’t feel right.
