Photo's batch number

Postby polaroidfan » Fri 14 December 2018 / 20:13 pm

Hi,

I have a picture made 1984.I want to find out what is the model it was shot with?
I found a link to polaroidoriginals website, https://support.polaroidoriginals.com/hc/en-us/articles/115012554408-What-is-the-number-on-the-back-of-the-photo-batch-number- they explain the number from the possible times to now-days.
Does somebody knows how to decode old Polaroid batch numbers?

Hi all,

For Christmas I made a script that decodes for you PO or IP's photo batch number.

I wrote it in MS Batch : http://nebulus.fr.nf/~obordron/anciensi ... ecoder.cmd

Useful if you have one or more photos and don't remember the batch they come from; don't decode it yourself : let the script do it for you !

Next to come : a bash version.

And I, too, would like to know the code of old Polaroid batch numbers :) ...

Hi,

As promised, here is a bash version of the script : http://nebulus.fr.nf/~obordron/anciensi ... al_decoder
After download, don't forget to set the executive rights on the file.

If you try those scripts, please tell me if they work (or not !) for you.
