As far as cheap film developing goes, I have been using Clark Color Labs for about a year now, and I have been very satisfied. As with *any* mail order service (and this includes most pharmacies, supermarkets, etc.), you are taking a bit of a chance: film might get lost in the mail, negatives might get scratched, etc. (though these have not happened to me yet). However, Clark's quality is at least as good as any of the others I tried (CVS, Shaw's, Brandlee's), at LESS THAN ONE THIRD the price. About 2 weeks ago, I sent Clark 5 rolls of 35 mm film (24 exposures), and got my 4x6" double prints in about a week, all for $24.50 + $4.25 shippin & handling + $2.03 postage = $30.78. I have not noticed too much of a problem with color on my prints, but I have only ever sent them Kodak "Gold" and their own "Clark" brand (which was not too bad, actually). They have P.O. boxes in about 12 cities across the country. (P.O. Box 991, Boston, MA 02103). Jim Kowalczyk Eisai Research Institute Andover, MA 01810 James_J_Kowalczyk@cup.portal.com JimK40@aol.com
