Introducing the 5th rarest Gold Polaroid Camera on earth. Sequentially numbered with Mildred Scheel’s signature. Number 0649/1000

Mildred Scheel was the wife of German President of the Federal Republic Walter Scheel. A great philanthropist and a friend of Andy Warhol, she used her husband’s influence with Polaroid to have 1,000 24k gold-plated cameras specially made to be auctioned for her charity, the German cancer fund “Deutsche Krebshilfe.” The cameras have her engraved signature and were sequentially numbered on the side from 1 to 1,000 They were auctioned off on a TV special auction in 1978.

There are three variations to the gold Polaroid Alpha 1, the first and rarest is the Saudi Prince edition, commissioned so that the Prince can to distribute as gifts. The second variation is the Employee edition of which 500 were produced to be rewarded to Polaroid Employees. And finally the third variation is the one that we have for sale, the Mildred Scheel edition.
