The Polaroid SX-70 Alpha 1 24 Kt Gold Mildred Scheel is a special-edition gold-plated version of Polaroid's folding SLR instant camera, built on the SX-70 integral-film platform introduced in the 1970s. Produced as a commemorative edition tied to the Mildred Scheel cancer-aid foundation, it was positioned as a collector's piece rather than a working everyday camera.

At UK saleroom level, hammer results for this commemorative Polaroid have landed in a £350–£450 band, with a median around £400 based on the two recorded auction sales. Because only a small number of hammer results are on file, today's value for any given example is highly sensitive to condition of the gold plating, completeness of presentation case and documentation, and whether the camera still fires; these are wholesale auction figures and dealer retail asking prices typically sit higher.
