Not sure if this belongs in this section, but it is a film camera...
I was putting some older magazines away yesterday and came across AP for 24th January 1979 (in case anyone wants to source a back issue) which contained an article unlike anything I can recall seeing anywhere else in the photographic press. A knitting pattern. Spread over two pages, full instructions and with small photos to help you knit your own Hassleblad. They helpfully noted that this was probably the least expensive way to own the camera...
I think that this surpasses in unusual content in a photo mag even the article on Dexion shelving in Practical Photography in the 1960s - that was about how you could use the product creatively, rather than just stacking things on the shelves and actually photographically on topic.
