TW, where do you get all your info !
It's great that you can post so much here

FWIW, I do remember the SLR680, but I think that was a "newer" model of the folding Polaroids.
I was so fascinated by the Polaroid cameras when they first appeared I went out and bought two !
But I think my mine were model SZ-70 (???)

My light bulb idea was to rent out the cameras for people's parties or whatever.
Being in grad school I was looking for any non-labor way to make extra $.
Nothing ever came of a business. I learned I am not a business person.
And my wife has never let me forget the $200
that used to gather dust in the bottom desk drawer.
Unfortunately a few years ago there was no more film available for them,
and they were given/thrown away...
I don't even remember them going.

But they were truely a great innovation at the time.
