Description

This Polaroid 100 series Automatic Land Camera was made between 1963 and 1966. Polaroid was well known for their “instant” prints and these cameras introduced a new pack style film which replaced roll film. Film sheets were packaged initially as eight shots and later expanded to 10. These film packs made loading and developing photographs more accessible to a wider audience. Included is a 1960s Ottawa streetscape that this camera captured.
