Goodbye Polaroid

When I heard this, I didn't event know that Polaroid is still alive today. Anyway, the company will cease the manufacturing of its well known, iconic insta-film by the yearend as announced early this year.

polaroid So if you still have a Polaroid camera with you, hold on to it as it becomes a collector's item. As for the film, you will probably only get to buy those from resellers (probably on eBay) next year.

If you have a soft spot for the once magnificent Polaroid camera, you might want to check out the Save Polaroid web site where people put testimonials, stories and even eulogies for the Polaroid.

When I was a kid our family had a polaroid camera. We just loved clicking a photo and waiting for it to develop before our eyes. Some of those photos still remain though they are somewhat faded now. But I dont even know where that camera went. Your post took me back about 25 years, thanks!
