Yep, they were all over.
Now you have to paint it up.

 

I went online and saved several vintage pics of them so I could get the colors right as well as signage and posters, I remember the one in my hometown was in Carriage Square shopping center which also had a Safeway store and a KFC, my mom and I would go to Safeway for groceries, hit the Fotomat to buy/dropoff/pickup film and sometimes we'd hit the KFC for lunch, all in my moms light blue 70's Pinto, lots of fond memories

 

I was going to say they were the Starbucks of the 70s, but I don’t think they were anywhere near as ubiquitous.

 

They definitely weren't within a block of each other as Starbucks sometimes seem to be but it seems about every shopping center of decent size had one back then

 

Yep. Those fotomats were everywhere. I think there's an old shopping center around here that still has the shell of one in the parking lot.

Learned to drive in a Maverick with three-in-the-tree.

Edit: Learned to drive in Grandpa's Ford pickup & tractor, in the field and on the dirt roads. I did my learners permit stint and got my license in the Maverick

I learned to drive in my grandpas 1930 Model A, I own that car now

 

Now you need a Tommy Chong figure to man the booth!

 

I'd love to find a model of the truck they drove in Up in Smoke

 

My wife worked in one near Mcguire AFB in NJ. She would call me at home to come look at nude pictures!
Before the internet was around.
Back in the 70's

 

The good old days before digital cameras!

 

 

I bought this on Ebay several years ago. "O" Scale.
