They take great photos if you use them right.

^^^ Oh no doubt... I never had that kind of talent. I always left the film paks in my car and it ruined them. :(

I have a pic of my '74 Capri with a small block 289 in it. I did that when I first moved to Cali in '75. I have to find that pic.

They just ceased production of polaroid integral film. There is a shiat ton out in the market place so you can still get it and some people are looking to get it manufactured again.

While not worth much of anything , they are still cool to look at, and I have run a few rolls though them:)

I have you beat by a couple decades. I have some Kodak Brownies and Hawkeye brownies, built in the 40's.

I also have some 1960 Polaroid land cameras and some russian stuff.

Bryan, have you done any Polaroid transfers onto watercolor paper? They look pretty amazing. Give it a shot sometime. You can do it damp, since watercolor paper is pretty tough.
