Ukulele performer and Film Photography Podcast pal Henrique Couto rolled into town today and would you believe….he was wearing Polaroid Shorts!!!
“Where did you get those shorts?” I said.
“My Mom made them.” Henrique replied.
The famous multi-color Polaroid packaging was designed by Paul Giambara. Mr Giambara also designed packaging for Tonka Toys, Gillette and others.

Ha!
ReplyDeleteIt's a great look, and the packaging designs by Mr Giambara are amazing. They still look fresh today, so they must have made a tremendous impact when he released them in the '60s and '70s.
