Polaroid Photo Collection Being Sold

[dof]

Many of the most valuable pieces from the Polaroid Corporations esteemed photo collection are slated to be sold at auction. I agree with the point made in the article that it's a shame the collection in all likelihood won't go to a museum.

It's a shame.


The last camera Walker Evans used was a Polaroid SX-70. Pretty much because they gave him the camera and an unlimited supply of film for free.
