Polaroid Type 87 Land Film is a classic peel-apart instant packfilm in the compact square-format (8.3 x 8.6 cm). This film series was primarily designed for Polaroid's 80-series Land Cameras (such as the Polaroid Zip, Super Color Swinger, Electric Zip, and various CRT/oscilloscope screen recording setups).
Key specifications:
-
Black & White (8 Black & White Prints): Formulated to yield 8 square-format black-and-white instant prints per pack.
-
High Speed Rating: Rated at 3000 ASA (ISO), offering high sensitivity for low-light conditions and rapid exposure response.
-
Coatingless Technology: Unlike earlier peel-apart films, Type 87 did not require post-development protective coating swabbing.
As this is original vintage film and its expiration date has long passed, the condition of the film chemistry and battery cannot be guaranteed. It can therefore be interesting as a collectible, as well as for photographers who deliberately experiment with expired Polaroid film. The sealed original packaging also makes the pack appealing to collectors of classic Polaroid materials.
