My sister recently called me, and asked if I'd like my Father's Polaroid Camera. Given that he died 30 years ago, this qualified as a fairly late inheritance.
I have a healthy supply of Polaroid film, so was very excited at the prospect of shooting with this camera from the past.
Alas, it was not to happen. When it arrived I found that this model takes type 88 series film, and mine is 665, so they aren't compatible. Even so, it was great to see the little Sylvania flash cubes, four flashes in each cube. Remember them?
If you are a keen collector of Polaroid Cameras feel free to get in touch, and maybe you'll have a new addition to your collection. Boxed as new as they say, with instruction manual enclosed.
