It looks like it was taken by a Minolta in 1997.

Obviously, this means that this was tweeted in 1998, simple

I'm thinking it has that polaroid vibe.

Now I'm even more confused!

I can't. It's a joke.

It looks like all the print photos I remember from the 1990s. Back then, my grandfather always walked around with a pocket Minolta 35mm camera. I loved playing with the sliding shutter guard.

I bet that was a good camera then! Might it have been the lens protector rather than shutter guard?
