you might need to send them out to a special lab...they might take about 2 weeks to get processed, so plan accordingly. you might want to check at osco or cvs for price comparisons as they can vary from store to store

They can be if the employee knows what they are doing. I doubt that an employee at wal-mart is worth taking the risk. Go to a photo shop that just does this stuff. You also can take in a picture, have a negative made, and then print more photo's from that. As old thigs are so prescious, don't trust them to a "chain" store where some high school kid could cut them to fit a standard "one size" machine.

I assume you are talking about negatives from an already developed roll of film. In that case, yes they can, as could any place that develops photographic film.
Once, I bought an old camera (Kodak Brownie that still had a roll of film in it) and had the film developed at a custom photo studio. The pictures were all from the 1960's.

negatives have already been developed what you need is positive from negative and it can be made at walmart. If you have undeveloped film from 1969 chances are it has been ruined by time you can try anyway if it doesn't work walmart doesn't charge for bad prints.

Yes, why not? You might ask before you drop them off or you can take them to Walgreens or some other drug store that has film processing; just call and ask.
If the negatives are too fragile you might want to get a professional photographer to develop them for you.

if they are larger than the uaual 35mm that we all use today, then they probably can't be developed at wal-mart in the 1 hour center. They can ship them out and have themback to you in 5 days.

Depends on the condition. If they are not dry and cracked they should develop very well. Make sure that they are clean and unstained. If they are in delicate condition then take them to a reputable service for restoring old prints.

I'd send them to a custom photo lab. It'll cost more, but it'll be worth it. Wal-mart doesn't do anything that isn't standard (35mm in their eyes), and they certainly don't know how to account for nearly 40 years of film sitting around in unpredictable conditions. I don't know if there's much hope for it, but talk to a custom lab (www.aandi.com is a good one) and they should be able to get you the best results.

It would be best to take them to an independent professional lab, or to turn them over to Ritz or Wolf and let them send them out.

Theyh wouldn't touch my negatives that had us doing 69. Ican't find any photo place to develop my pics.
