[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 999251, member: 176704"] You might even try the photo service in a local supermarket such as TESCO which often has Max Spielmann outlets (MS is/was also a specialist processor), but you can also find some specialist processors at the backs of magazines such as Amateur Photographer (available in most supermarkets and W H Smiths). I think the rolls of film are the very old "620" size, not the still-available "120" size, but the films of both are the same width and so any processor that can handle 120 [I]might[/I] also be able to deal with 62o films. The bigger problem might be the Verichrome emulsion for which the relevant correct chemicals are probably not still available - some processors [I]might[/I] be prepared to attempt to process that but- particularly given how old the films are - with no guarantee of the results (e.g. whether the colours would be correct!), or that anything could even be salvaged at all. OTOH, most specialists should be able to scan the already-processed negatives to a disc. Whatever can be done, unfortunately, it will not be cheap. [/QUOTE]
