Does anybody know of a business at makes prints off of 2 3/4" X 4 1/2", black and white negatives?  Thank you for your time.  James

Do you have a scanner?  Or have a friend with perhaps an Epson V700 or comparable flatbed scanner?   Or a photo shop in town?  Most folks have scanned their own negs for years like me.  Got rid of the darkroom at least 25 years ago and went digital.

R & R Color Lab in Spokane.

Check their website, or give them a call. Erin is the owner, and Bella is her excellent associate.

They will scan your negatives in order to make your prints, but the end result is the same.

They do nice work. I’ve been using them for years.

That is an unusual size indeed.  

Please share some info about the camera.

I recall seeing negatives like that many years ago. They are from 116/616 film, which Kodak only stopped making in 1984. The film was used in early Kodak box and folding cameras.

616, 122 and 4x5 were very popular back in steam days. 616 and 122 (Postcard size) were very good for roster shots.  4x5 was a popular size for Speed Graphic and Graflex "press" cameras.
