Milind Tambe ------------------------------------------------------ My query posted on the general bboard: ------------------------------------------------------ In our apartment shifting last week, my wife and I managed to lose her (Indian) passport. The application forms for a new passport require her to get 13 passport size pictures! Kinkos would cost $60/- for these. We would like to get these copies at a cheaper rate if possible. It is not necessary to get these pictures in a hurry - we can wait for 2-3 days. We have a negative from an earlier picture but it is a little larger than necessary. We called up 3-4 photo shops, but the smallest size they would develop that negative to is 3 inches by 3 inches. So is there is a way to get 13 pictures at a cheaper rate than $60/-. Thanks in advance Milind Tambe x8102 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Responses ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Message-Id: <4ciIZvy00UhWA2=8tr@andrew.cmu.edu> Date: Mon, 26 Aug 91 14:33:31 -0400 (EDT) From: Phyllis Reuther To: Milind.Tambe@centro.soar.cs.cmu.edu Subject: Re: cheap passport size pictures Status: R You can have passport sized photos taken at the photo booth in Monroville mall for $1 each. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Date: Mon, 26 Aug 1991 14:54-EDT From: Sunil.Issar@K.GP.CS.CMU.EDU To: Milind.Tambe@CENTRO.SOAR.CS.CMU.EDU Subject: Re: cheap passport size pictures Milind, I believe that you can get them considerably cheaper at Chircosta Studio (281-2920) in downtown. I don't remember anything else, but I did use them about a year ago.

I am not sure of the price, but I would guess it is $1 or 2 per 2 passport size photos. The machine is near the restrooms, I think in the top floor. Good luck! (paperwork is such a pain...)

In any case, cheaper than Kinko.

I'm surprised that they only require 13 photographs and not more. The cheapest way of getting passport size pictures is to find one of those machines that takes them. I think you can find one of these machines at a mall. Try either Monroeville or Century III. The pictures shouldn't cost more than 4 to 5 dollars for 4. Good luck!

Also there are photo booths in malls where you can get 4 pictures for 1 or 2 dollars (I believe the Monroeville mall has one such booth as well as Ross Park mall). Hope it helps, --Norman ------------------------------------------------------------------------
