One of the things I had to do in preparation for Haruo "Mr. Godzilla" Nakajima's appearance at the Mad Monster Party convention next month (March 22-24) in Charlotte, North Carolina was to get photo prints made for autograph-seekers.
I checked around and found that some photo service companies either could not handle a bulk order at reasonable cost or just don't do black & white photography, amongst other things.
Persistence usually pays off and it did again when I found Grand Prints out of North Hollywood, California.
Grand Prints were able to handle a bulk order of black & white prints and, most importantly, at a reasonable price.
They have experience in photo restoration, enlargements and celebrity headshots (they showed me some recent Star Trek celebrity photos they completed).
Since they have experience in handling celebrity photographs, were reasonably-priced and able to handle bulk black & white orders, I enlisted them to make Mr. Nakajima's photos from some that Sonoe Nakajima sent.
Below is one of the images that Sonoe Nakajima sent. The top one is before image restoration and the second is after Grand Prints worked their photo magic in restoring it.

After
The image was greatly improved with various scratches and other blemishes removed.
Grand Prints can handle photographic needs for customers from anywhere. They can take orders through their website and work with images sent via email.
I recommend Grand Prints. Their website is: http://www.grandprints.com/
