Hello, j. withers,
I know some students who might be interested. I don't know what they've
found in town but one woman in particular needs 4x5 color negatives and the
Alternative Processes class is taught in the Fall semester. Those students
might be interested as well for b&w negs.
These are students so they don't have much to spend. What would you charge
per 8x10 color & b&w negs?
Wayne
