Edwin Land Introduces the First Polaroid Land Camera

Just got an email from Dave DeMeyer who was prompted by Janet Conley that 21 February 1947 was the "famous day in Miami Beach when Dr. Land performed his magic."

Thanks to the Science and Society (UK) Picture Library, for this use of a photo of the old Model 95 that he used and a link to their site.

To put this in proper context, keep in mind that this all happened in just 25 years, from the first camera model that was almost the size of the one Matthew Brady photographed the Civil War which produced sepia prints that faded, to the SX-70 that was the last model to get any real public interest.
