Title: Can you help with this 1919 Original
Post by: Jack J. on Tuesday 27 March 07 00:26 BST (UK)

I have been trying to post a photo. It was always to large. I think I have it now. This is an original photo taken in 1919. My Father-inlaw carried it in his pocket for years. He died in 1997 at age 96. It wasn't a very good picture but I would appreciate anything that can be done with it.

                Thank you,

Thanks for your efforts. The sun just washed out to much of the details. I have a somewhat better copy but it was cropped. I guess you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. There just isn't enough to work with. Thanks again,

Here is another at 600 DPI. I hope I cut the size enough. I hope you can find this Polldoll.

Hi Jack

I'm not sure how you managed to get your post at the top of the board instead of the main restore area but hopefully more people will see it.

Here's my go at the moment, I might be able to do a bit more with the faces when I get home.
