Ralle Rotten
The book has a small introductory part to photography then pages and pages of polaroid photos that made history and a final part where we have some polaroid history. Product arrived on time by Amazon prime. There are famous names such as Warhol, Ansel Adams (man could not miss here) or David Hockney, but perhaps by the nature of the medium few recognizable photographs. Hard cover, coating, durable and glossy paper, excellent photo rendering.

A standard workfor every retro photo fan. But the format and presentation are extremely appealing. This is precisely one of the drawbacks of the work, which although many snapshots are suggestive on their own, you run the risk of ending up boring pages due to the randomness of the collected images. Of course, if you already have other books from the Polaroid Collection, there is no such thing as that.

Very interesting, great source of inspiration and ideas donors. 85€ with Prime shipping) and well printed Taschen piece contains 400 snapshots from Polaroid's own collection.

At the end of the book there is an index indicating which camera each was taken with, which is interesting. Texts also included in German.
