I found a pack of Polaroid 600 film the other day at Deseret, and having had no luck getting a vintage 1981 pack I found some time ago to work, I was only mildly hopeful that this pack, which expired in 2005 might actually work. I dug up my One Step Flash and tried it out.
The Blue Bomber, 1963 IBM Selectric 721
Heckle, Itek 975CD Offset Press
Number 6, Tortoiseshell Cat
Eeeeeerie.
I blame global warming. :)
Never know which will die first; the film and its chemicals or the battery.
Haunting images. I see why some folk love expired film :)
On eBay recently I saw someone selling old Polaroid photos of random people – eg 1960s lady in bikini, people at a 1970s BBQ. Gave me a nostalgic chuckle.
Your Polaroid images are super cool – any one of them would make an excellent LP album cover.
That does look cool.
Oh, that is cool! I’m impressed that the battery still worked. I never quite understood that attribute of Polaroid design. A battery in each film pack seems pretty wasteful.
