DVD Transfer Services

IMAGES OF THE PAST™ was established in 1985 as a photo restoration business located in the historic river town of Stillwater Minnesota. The process has changed a bit with the advent of digital technology, but our experienced restoration artists are still performing top notch professional photo retouching.

Our onsite photo lab allows us to custom print from virtually any size b&w negative that you may have in your family archives.Even early forms of photography such as daguerreotypes, ambrotypes, and tintypes can be restored and copied in fiberbase print form. These can be extremely fragile images and should be handled only by experienced professionals.Other specialties include hand coloring or partial tinting b&w photos as well restoring old family documents and certificates.
