Questions for the photographers out there. I've got 7 rolls/cartridges of undeveloped 110 film,and a LARGE number of 110,126(the REAL prizes in this batch-more on these later)and 35mm negatives that I'd like to get developed and printed. Been checking online and have it narrowed down to a few possible places. Rocky Mountain Photo is NOT one of them. Expensive,long turnaround time,and on their site,they're selling off a LOT of old processing equipment. What I'm considering is Dwayne's Photo out of Kansas,Film Rescue International(an office/lab in North Dakota),The Darkroom out of California and Titan Photo Labs from here in Michigan. Any of you cats have any experience with any of these shops for your old film needs? I lost virtually all my prints in the Infamous Basement Flood of 2000,though many negatives were above the waterline and survived. There were a whole lot that didn't survive,as they were with the prints.
What's so special about this stuff? Well;the 110 cartridges have portions of my personal life from the late Seventies to the early Eighties,but also some drag racing history-like shots from the last season run at Tri-City Dragway,and stuff from the 1982 and 1983 U.S. Nationals at Indy. I mentioned the 126 negs as being special;well,it's more Tri-City action from the 1974 NHRA points meet held there in July. I snuck up to the guardrail with some of the "real" photographers doing shots for National Dragster and the like,and this kid with a 126 "toy" camera got off some good staring line shots.
So-o-o-o...any advice or suggestions? Lots of cool Mopar stuff on these as well-I really want to share that stuff with this group.
