    Hi folks!
    Looking for an "Expert Only" in the West and Northwest to develop these rolls.

    Sorry about this but it has to be someone who knows what they are doing as the rolls were exposed some time in 1940 or 1950.

    Not sure, i sent 4 of them away and only 2 were done, the two in the photo were not touched, they were sent from Mayo to Dub, and no explanation why they wee not done just a fee of €60 for the two that were done. The place in Dub that done them are well known to the Photographer World and have a good reputation, so i am looking for somewhere closer to the west coast where i cam go see them for myself?

    Which process are they ? 40s/50s probably pre-date C-41 I guess. Is the CNs the process ?

    CN16 is compatible with C-41.. so anyplace with good chemistry can do it if the CN number is 16. If it's not CN-16.. I'd do some research on whether it's compatible. If not.. you could pick a roll & get it done.. or do a "snip test" where you cut off a section & get it developed to test if the process is compatible.

    (Labs with Fuji chemistry & equipment would all be using CN16 process and not C-41.)

    I once called Davitt's in Salthill to ask if they'd process 127 film & they didn't know what I was on about. Thought I meant 120. Mind you, I wasn't talking to the guy that runs the place so he might've been more helpful - it wasn't an encouraging response, though! I'd worry about the process being extinct too; from what I'd researched online before, the modern 127 films are all C41 & the issue with developing them is purely the width of the film. I find film services fairly poor in Galway at least, so I doubt anywhere in the Wesht would cater for anything pre-C41. (I'm in Dublin a lot, so I use Gunn's - I find the camera shops in Galway to either be rude or not knowing what I'm on about! You could try phoning Gunns - they might be able to give you some information even if they can't process it).

    Did you try googling the process written on the film?
