I found a cache of old photos I took in the mid-1990s of Polish arcade game parlors and repair places.pic.twitter.com/HLn0C3ScVn

(I also found my notebooks where, in my last years before The Internet, I would write down and measure everything I possibly could about arcade games.)pic.twitter.com/OzeLmmzq9T
Oh my god!!! I just realized I still have that camera. Here it is, right next to the one I currently use. It must still be possible to get film for it, right? Could be fun to take it for a spin again.pic.twitter.com/EMkuVIeDxC
Extra personal context: I have few photos from my childhood; photography was rare and expensive. These 80 photos is by far the largest consistent visual archive I have of my life before moving away from Poland.
I wonder how many photos are on a HDD, I uploaded because “no one would find these interesting”?
*un-uploaded
Super cool stuff. Thanks for sharing! Also I think my friend Tony Temple @ArcadeBlogger might be interested in writing about and sharing what you’ve shown.
Harpers? But if photos were rare and expensive, how did you come to shoot -- arcade game repair places?
They might not have been by then – plus I already had a job, and I justified it as resources/research/reference for my game.
