Does anyone know where I can send my NON-pornographic black & white nude film to get developed?

If you say where you are, somebody might know of a lab in your area.

That said, a lab that specializes in custom processing for commercial accounts, rather than consumer work, is more likely to handle it. Since it is B&W, most consumer processors wouldn't do a good job, anyhow. Call the labs in your area and ask. Yellow pages are a good start, and look for labs that specialize in B&W.

Cami, I used to send all of my B & W to San Miguel Lab in Las Vegas New Mexico. They are very professional to deal with including nudes. Their at www.bestlab.com See ya, Bob

Cami, I read a post on one list in the last few days about by a man who was arrested after sending nudes to a photodeveloper. Are you aware that you don't need much of a darkroom or much equipment to develop film? I routinely develop film in hotel rooms while traveling or on vaction. Printing roll film can also be done in minimal space. I would guess that if you do it in any quantity at all you will earn back the equipment investment quickly over lab prices for "special" B&W handling and you results will be consistent.
