Glad to see this here, Andy. Jim is a friend of mine as well, and an amazing
printer. He's one of the few living photogs I'd call a Master Printer... I've
been sharing this link on FB and meant to share it here, have just been a bit
preoccupied with photo deadlines...
Best,
Kimberly

Subject: [pure-silver] The last B&W lab in Manhattan needs help
A good friend of mine, Jim Megargee, has been operating a B&W lab in Manhattan
for 30 years but needs to move and the expense is a bit much for him and he is
seeking assistance. Find out more here:

A text at the site says this: MV Photo Lab has been serving the photographic
community for close to 30 years. We are the last Black and White lab remaining
in Manhattan. Recently our landlord sold the building where we are located. The
new landlord has told us that they are going to demo the building and put up
yet another hotel. We are looking to relocate in the area. Our problem is that
the cost of a build out ( new darkroom(s), plumbing, electric work, etc.) is
currently beyond our budget. We have just over a month to rent a new location.
If we can raise the money necessary to do the build out we could find a new
location within a week and begin the construction that will be necessary. We
thank you in advance for your help.
Andy
