                           PHOTO CONTROL CORPORATION
                         ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
                                  MAY 11, 1995

                                PROXY STATEMENT

     The accompanying proxy is solicited by the Board of Directors of Photo
Control Corporation (the "Company") for use at the Annual Meeting of
Shareholders to be held on May 11, 1995, and at all adjournments thereof, for
the purposes set forth in the Notice of Meeting.

     The cost of soliciting proxies, including the preparation, assembly, and
mailing of the proxies and soliciting materials, as well as the cost of
forwarding such materials to the beneficial owners of Common Stock, will be
borne by the Company. Directors, officers and regular employees of the Company
may, without compensation other than their regular compensation, solicit proxies
personally or by telephone. The Company expects that this Proxy Statement and
the accompanying form of proxy will be mailed to Shareholders on or about April
3, 1995.

     Any Shareholder giving a proxy may revoke it at any time prior to its use
at the Meeting by giving written notice of such revocation to the Secretary of
the Company or by submitting to the Secretary another proxy bearing a later
date. Proxies will be voted as specified by Shareholders. Proxies which are
signed but which lack such specification will be voted in favor of each
proposal.

     The mailing address of the principal executive office of the Company is
4800 Quebec Avenue, North, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55428.

                      OUTSTANDING SHARES AND VOTING RIGHTS

     The Board of Directors of the Company has fixed March 13, 1995, as the
record date for the determination of the Shareholders entitled to vote at the
Annual Meeting. Persons who were not Shareholders on such date will not be
allowed to vote at the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on March 13,
1995, there were 1,510,647 outstanding shares of Common Stock, par value $.08
per share, which is the only outstanding class of voting stock of the Company.

     A quorum must be present in order to transact business at the Annual
Meeting. A quorum is present if the holders of a majority of all shares
outstanding and entitled to vote are represented either in person or by proxy.
Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote. The proposal to set the
number of directors at six requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority of the total voting power present in person or by proxy and entitled to
vote. Abstentions from voting on setting the number of directors at six will
have the effect of votes against, while broker non-votes are treated as shares
not voted.

     The election of each director shall be decided by plurality vote. As a
result, any shares not voted for a director (whether by withholding authority,
broker non-vote or otherwise) will not affect the outcome. Holders of the Common
Stock are not entitled to cumulate their votes for the election of directors.


                             ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

                           (PROPOSALS NUMBER 1 AND 2)


     The Bylaws of the Company provide that at each annual meeting the
shareholders shall determine the number of directors for the ensuing year. Such
number shall not be less than three and not more than six. The Bylaws of the
Company also provide for three classes of directors with terms staggered so as
to require the election of only one class of directors each year. The terms of
two directors belonging to Class I ends with the 1995 Annual Meeting. The Board
of Directors therefore recommends that the number of directors of the Company be
set at six and that two directors be elected at the 1995 Annual Meeting.

     The Board of Directors nominates Leslie A. Willig and George A. Kiproff for
reelection as directors of the Company. If elected, Messrs. Willig and Kiproff
will serve for a three-year term as the Class I directors of the Board of
Directors and until their successors are elected and qualified. In March 1995,
the Board of Directors in accordance with the Company's Bylaws elected Mr. Joe
M. Kilgore to fill the vacant Class II director position. Mr. Kilgore's term
expires at the 1996 Annual Meeting of the Shareholders.

     Both Mr. Willig and Mr. Kiproff are members of the present Board of
Directors and were elected at the 1992 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. If prior
to the 1995 Annual Meeting of Shareholders it should become known to the Board
of Directors that either Mr. Willig or Mr. Kiproff will be unable to serve after
the Annual Meeting as a director by reason of death, incapacity or other
unexpected occurrence, the proxies will be voted for such substitute nominees as
is selected by the Board of directors. Alternately, the proxies may, at the
discretion of the Board of Directors, not be voted as a result of death,
incapacity, or other unexpected occurrence. However, in no event will the
proxies be voted for more than two nominees. The Board of Directors has no
reason to believe that either Mr. Willig or Mr. Kiproff will be unable to serve.

     Following is information about the nominees and all other directors of the
Company.

                                 BOARD MEETINGS



     The Company's Board of Directors has an Audit Committee and a Compensation
Committee. The Board of Directors has no separate Nominating Committee but acts
as a whole in that capacity. The Compensation Committee reviews and recommends
compensation for officers and directors of the Company, and the Audit Committee
assists the Board in satisfying its responsibilities relating to the accounting,
auditing and reporting practices of the Company.

     Each committee consists of the three independent members, James R. Loomis,
George A. Kiproff, and Thomas J. Cassady. The Compensation Committee met once
and the Audit Committee met twice during fiscal year 1994. All the members of
each committee attended all of the committee meetings during the year.

     The Company's Board of Directors held four meetings during fiscal year
1994. With one exception, all the directors attended all the meetings of the
Board during the year. Mr. Kiproff missed one meeting.


                              CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

     As the Company has previously announced, the Board of Directors has
approved a stock repurchase program under which up to $1,500,000 of the
Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock may be repurchased in the open
market, by block purchases or in private transactions. The Board of Directors
(excluding Mr.Kiproff) authorized the purchase of a block of 18,750 shares of
Common Stock in a private transaction from Mr.Kiproff, one of the directors and
a nominee for election at the Annual Meeting, in connection with the stock
repurchase program. The Company purchased the shares from Mr. Kiproff on January
10, 1995 at a price of $6.00 per share which was the closing market bid price
for the Company's Common Stock on that date.

(1) Cash bonuses have been included as compensation for the year earned even
though such bonuses were actually calculated and paid in different years. The
aggregate amount allocated for bonuses for a particular year is established by
the Board of Directors and normally is equal to a percentage of the Company's
consolidated corporate pretax profits for the year. Generally, an officer will
not be entitled to a cash bonus unless the pretax profit of the Company or of
the subsidiary or division for which the officer is responsible exceeds an
amount which is approved by the Board of Directors and the individual meets the
performance criteria determined by the President of the Company.

(2) All other compensation includes the portion of the Company's contribution to
a profit sharing plan which became vested as follows: L. A. Willig - $9,044,
R.M. Johnson - $6,732, C. R. Jackels - $5,695, P. J. Gilligan - $5,721, and the
compensation accrued for the Executive Salary Continuation Plan as follows: 
W. L. Norman - $4,965, R. M. Johnson - $6,786, and C. R. Jackels - $1,306.

(1) In 1983, the Board of Directors adopted the Company's 1983 Stock Option
Plan. Pursuant to the Plan, the Board determines which directors, officers or
employees of the Company or its subsidiaries will receive stock options, the
number of shares to be covered by each option, the option exercise price, and
the other terms and conditions of the option. Unless otherwise determined by the
Board of Directors, an option under the plan is to be granted at an exercise
price equal to the fair market value of the Company's Common Stock on the date
of grant, will have a term not exceeding five years, will be exercisable in
installments rather than being immediately exercisable in full, and may provide
for the payment of a cash bonus to the optionee (to help cover federal income
tax withholding requirements) at the time the option is exercised. The cash
bonuses are 5% of the exercise price if exercised in the third year of the
option, 10% if exercised in the fourth year and 40% if exercised in the fifth
year.

(2) Stock options expire on the fifth anniversary of the grant date. The
optionee may not purchase any of the option shares until after the second
anniversary of the grant date. During each of the three years following the
second anniversary of the grant, the optionee's rights to purchase are vested
thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the total number of shares of
Common Stock granted.

COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS


     Each director who is not an employee of the Company or subsidiaries
("outside director") receives $12,000 per year. Also, a fee of $500 is paid to
each outside director for each board or committee meeting attended. Those
directors who are employees are not specifically compensated for their duties as
directors. The total amount paid to all directors for services as directors
during fiscal year 1994 was $46,000.


EXECUTIVE SALARY CONTINUATION PLAN

     In 1985, the Board of Directors adopted an Executive Salary Continuation
Plan to provide salary continuation benefits to selected executives of the
Company. Pursuant to the Plan the Board of Directors determines which key
executive employees may participate in the Plan. Each participant who continues
in employment with the Company or one of its subsidiaries until age 65, or dies
while employed by the Company, shall be entitled to receive salary continuation
benefits payable monthly for not less than 15 years. In the event of the death
of a participant, payments will be made to the participant's beneficiary. If a
participant dies before reaching age 67, salary continuation benefits will be
paid to the beneficiary of the participant for 15 years or until the participant
would have reached the age 67, whichever is longer. The amount of the salary
continuation benefits to be paid each year is 20% of the projected annual salary
of the participant at age 67. The projected annual salary is equal to the salary
the participant would receive at age 67 if his salary on August 9, 1985, (the
date of adoption of the Plan) was increased by 5% each year until the
participant reached age 67. The Company maintains a life insurance policy for
the individuals covered under the Plan, the proceeds of which are intended to
reimburse the Company for payment of salary continuation benefits. For the
participating individuals the estimated annual payment, assuming retirement at
age 67, is as follows: L.A. Willig, $32,832, W.L. Norman, $61,569, R.M. Johnson,
$24,947, and C.R. Jackels, $48,534.

PROFIT SHARING PLAN

     In 1976, the Board of Directors adopted a Profit Sharing Plan under which
all employees of the Company after one year of service are eligible to
participate if they have completed 1,000 hours of service during the fiscal
year. The Company's contribution to the Plan for any fiscal year is determined
annually by the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, and paid out of the
Company's net income or retained earnings. The Company's contribution to the
plan for fiscal 1994, was $135,000. Company contributions are allocated to the
participant's account in relation to the salaries of all participants. A
participant vests in his or her account at a rate of twenty percent for every
year of service and is vested one hundred percent at the end of five years of
service.
