Description
Photo Star branded film — a one-hour photo lab private label color print film. One-hour photo labs were a ubiquitous feature of American shopping malls and strip malls from the 1980s through the 2000s. Many labs sourced bulk film and packaged it under their own brand as an additional revenue stream — customers who bought the lab's film were more likely to return to the same lab for processing. Photo Star represents this retail ecosystem, now almost entirely gone.
