At the end of the day, we are just a bunch of people who are excited and proud about the opportunity to take the brand and what it stands for forward.

For keen fans eager to dig deeper into the history, the book comprises images that give an insight into manufacturing, advertising and the evolution of the camera range over the years.

At the same time, Polaroid the brand lived on as strong as ever, with new ownership developing a successful licensing program. The first thing that jumped out at me when I learned about Polaroid’s history was Edwin Land’s incredible drive and curiosity. My journey to ensure a future, and fight for these incredible products and this incredible brand was about to start.
