I got my DH a scanner by SnapScan. Amazing machine. He just zipped thru all the photos from his family.

I used to know a ton about this stuff. One thing that was true even in the early 2000s is that the cost of high-ish speed scanners was coming way down. You might just buy one.

>> Hi Tori,
>> I do some image scanning here but I don't specialize in it, so I can't do either high volume or especially low pricing.  This is true for all of the local service providers I know of, and some of them just farm it out anyway.  But I do know of these folks in the Worcester area.

>> I haven't used them yet, but it looks like it could work for you.
>> Good luck and let us know if works out.
