The Orange Dot Gallery will showcase 157 prints of Hipstamatics' hundreds of posted images. According to the gallery, the number of prints is symbolic; it's the same as the number of original analog Hipstamatic cameras produced.

The Hipstamatic analog camera was created by the Dorbowski borthers, Bruce and Winston, in 1982. Exactly 157 cameras were made and sold over the two years that followed. The popular Hipstamatic iPhone app attempts to emulate the effects and ambience of those original camera shots.

According to the Orange Dot blog, "A homage to both the history and future of Hipstamatics, the exhibition will showcase some of the best works featured on the site to date, from both submitted snaps from around the globe and their own specially sourced and exclusive work."

Select six-by-six-inch prints from the exhibition (pictured below) are selling for £10 each on the Orange Dot website.
