Hi I have been lucky enough to find an uncle with pictures of my Father as a child. The problem is where I took them to get copys made they wont copy because they are not older then 75 years old. I was told by the person there I had to have permition to copy photes taken by a photographer studio. Well this was in the St Charles and Bonny Blue are of Virgina. Around 1944-1954. So how do I find out about studios at that time. I was told to see what labs have closed. Can anyone help me. ANN

Some Wal-marts and K-mart stores have the machines were you can make your own copies in about 5 minutes. They look great and they don't loose a bit of quality. It scans the picture and then you get to choose what size and how many pictures you want. If you can't locate one of these in your area then I would take my business to another photo shop. If all else fails I would be glad to take the pictures to my Wal-mart and make the copies for you. You could overnight the pictures to me and I could overnight them back to you. Don't let one obstacle (or person) discourage you. There is always a way around things! Good luck!
