A finishing apparatus for photographic laboratories having at least two elements for advancing separate strips of photographic paper, carrying images printed thereon, towards two corresponding cutters and two members for conveying the prints cut by the cutters from the paper strips. The two members being vertically superposed at least in that part most distant from the cutters. Also provided is a collector facing the exits of said conveyor members, and provided with elements for selective feeding towards at least one shelf. A code reader is present on the conveyor belt to indicate those prints pertaining to the same customer order. The apparatus has a control unit which receives signals from the readers and initially causes a first cutter to cut all those prints of the first paper strip which pertain to the same customer order, and causes them to advance along the corresponding conveyor member towards the collector, and then causes the second cutter to cut all those prints of the second strip which pertain to the same customer order as that corresponding to the customer order of the first strip, and causes them to advance along the corresponding conveyor member towards the collector.
