I would caution though that such places are not accustomed to dealing with high-priced collectibles, and depending on the dimensions of your photos, the scanning would probably be done in a pass-through arrangement rather than an oversized flatbed scanner.
Thanks - that was my thought in stopping by the map store, but they only do monochrome. Most of my oversized photos are cabinets, so it would have to be done on a flatbed; however, wherever I get it done, I'll have a very detailed discussion first. Hoping to get it done this week, as I have one that I'm anxious to get framed.
