Rapid Photo Imaging Center Inc

Rapid Photo Imaging Center in Clarks Summit — 5 stars: Found four rolls of exposed but undeveloped film (three 620 film format rolls and one 127 film format roll) buried away in the basement that were at least 40 years old — Verichrome, Verichrome Pan, and Kodacolor. Current film processing is C-​41 (mostly 35 mm film stocks), but these older film stocks used C-​22 processing — and Kodak does not manufacture the chemicals for C-​22 anymore. So it was off to the internet.
Found just a handful of firms that would try to develop old film. The one that sounded the most reasonable was Rapid Photo in Pennsylvania. Processing is expensive: $ 25 per roll + 85 cents per print + $ 25 for rush service; you prepay everything and they refund any difference. Of course they cannot guarantee that there is anything salvageable on the roll, but they will try.
I sent in my four rolls, rush service, and had the results within a couple of weeks. Two rolls yielded nothing, one roll some fair prints, and the last some really nice treasures from long ago. Since I couldn’t bring myself to just throw the rolls away, I tried having them developed and am glad I did. Rapid Photo gave me nice fast service … e-​mailed me when the results were mailed … and provided me with a CD of the prints so the digitizing was done. Nice complete job. From my one time experience, I would not hesitate to use Rapid Photo again.
