Cool Camera I saw today..
The pretty lil thing came complete in case with flash units and literature even!
Too cool....
Nice camera and shots.....I remember My Uncle having a Polaroid Camera like that.Wonder what ever happened to it.Thanx
$95? Can you still get film for it?
check adorama if it's available they might have it.
These are great shots. Love the camera. It is amazing that some people keep everything from when they bought the item while others throw everything away.

Been a long time since I've seen a bellows type Polaroid. It use to be a standard for taking family photos. I belive it only shot B&W.

What fun are you?
Well Theresa thinks I'm fun!! (I hope) but I used to work in a retail camera store called Pelling and Croos. It was right across from 221b Baker Street in London were Sherlock Whats his name was supposed to live. The store was bought out by a Chcago Camera store called Calumet .
We used to sell this Polaroid Camera in large quantities to the Pornographic Sleezy photographers because it was the only way you could get prints in those days without sending negatives to a processing lab and risk getting into do do with the cops.
They were so expensive to run and the quality was better than the cheaper Polaroids but not much.
Good to see your smiley face stareing at me off the monitor. I need a smile cos I am still real sick with Theresa's flu.
Love

There was a discussion a month or so about old type flash bulbs and I said I had an old Kodak Camera and a rotary flash gun. Well I was going though my storage unit and throwing away all the junk I have accumulated and found the camera. So here are some pics of it.

Hi Mr.Sinatraman
Thanks for the comment and you right I am strange!!!
My autobiography would be called "Adventures of a super tramp" but you would be the only one who would read it!!! Maybe Theresa would borrow your copy!!!
I suppose the most stupid thing I ever did was to hitch hike to Paris from my home town of Hastings, England in 1964. I met up with a scots guy who started one of the first "Free Film" processing labs in England. To cut a boring story short, He suggested we go to the Tokyo Olylympics, With about $50 in English Money, A crazt Scotsman and a kilt and bagpipes, we hitch hiked up through Denmark, across Sweden to Finland and onto what was the then the USSR and jumped the freight train part of the Trans Siberian Express. We eventually got to Peking and he went off to tthe coat and worked on aferry to Japan and I quit and went on donkeys and camels and foot down the Kyber Pass through Afganistan and eventually back to Russia,
looking back on the trip, we must have been as you put it, Strange!!!!
All the best old bean! Try get some English "Marmite" it will blow your socks off!
Ian and of course the delectable Miss Theresa.
