With the recent news about Polaroid closing their warehouses and
discontinueing the manufacture of their instant film, i feel that it is
the close of an era. the polaroid name revolutionized photography and,
in doing so, became a cultural phenomenon. for a company to ignore it's
responsibility to continue this tradition is very dishonorable, and very
sad. but, this is where other companies have the opportunity to take up
the reigns and conquer this world of digital avalanches. i understand
your company makes another kind of film that has long been discontinued
by the polaroid company, and that is the reason that i think your
company would be perfect to pick up the slack where polaroid has let
their responsibilities faulter. please consider to start manufacturing
this product that will continue a favorite american passtime, and the
world as well. Thank you.
