Super off topic, but still car related.
I own a bunch of negatives that I'm thinking about making posters or prints of. My background is Volvo repair. I bought a large lot of negatives from a photographer who was employed by Volvo to take their pictures for them from 1968~1973 Some of the negatives show art work ,that was used in accessory brochures but not completed yet. Pretty cool. I own brochures that show the artwork in its final state. So the question is: does anybody have An online service for printing posters from photo negatives? |

I'd scan them all ,that way you can fix them up digitally and pack the negatives away safely.
I scanned all my old slides and never have to touch them again... |

Are you thinking about selling them?
What would Volvo say? |

First you will need to digitize the negatives. Amazon has a ton of low cost digitizers. https://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UTF8&keywo...sl_54spj77mz5_e
Then email to your local FedEx Kinkos or Walmart or Costco and tell them what size you want. I found this image on the Bird and FedEx Kinkos turned it into a poster whic I had framed.  |
