There is a place in Colorado, Rocky Mountain Film Lab:

I think the do many of the old processes, in batches as they accumulate
enough rolls to justify mixing the chemicals. An old camera I bought came
with a partially-completed roll of Kodachrome II (my late, lamented
favorite... I liked the 'Kodachrome sky' look) so I finished it up and
trotted it over to Costco. Came back two days later with a note -- "We don't
do this old process".
The place in Colorado does, but it would be ~$28 to process the roll, and
they do a batch about every 6 months. You don't get slides back, rather B&W
prints from the film developed as a negative... apparently the color dyes
are no longer made.
I don't have that much curiosity about what (if anything) would be on the
roll.
