Polaroid 691 Transparency Film (Expired 1998) (ASA 80)
Original Polaroid Color. 10 Exposures. Foil-Sealed Pack.
No Digital Substitute.
Polaroid 691 is a peel-apart instant transparency (slide) film designed to produce positive images with rich color and luminous depth. Unlike standard prints, 691 creates a transparency that can be viewed on a lightbox or projected — a rare instant slide experience that digital simply cannot replicate.
This pack is expired (1998) and sold as-is for experimental, artistic, or collector use.
What to Expect
• Classic Polaroid color rendering — when chemistry responds
• Glowing, backlit transparency look
• Possible color shifts (often warmer or greener with age)
• Reduced sensitivity or uneven development
• Unpredictable but often beautifully unique results
Expired 691 rewards controlled exposure, strong lighting, and a willingness to embrace analog variation.

Why 691?
Because it creates a true instant transparency — not just a print.
Because it glows when backlit.
Because imperfections are part of the process.
Once it’s gone, it’s gone.
