VINTAGE CAMERA FUN---A LOOK BACK AT THE POLAROID LAND CAMERA---CLICK ON THE 1953 CHRISTMAS AD

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW---The Land Camera is a model of self-developing film camera manufactured by Polaroid between 1948 and 1983. It is named after their inventor, the American scientist Edwin Land, who developed a process for self-developing photography between 1943 and 1947. After Edwin Land's retirement from Polaroid, the name 'Land' was dropped from the camera name. The first commercially available model was the Model 95, which produced sepia-colored prints in about 1 minute. It was first sold to the public on November 26, 1948.

  1. That camera was on my wish list one Christmas and my dear mama put away a little all year to get it for me. Best present ever. I still have it and always think of her.
