Hello

Can anyone restore and add colour to this photo please.

The baby is my grandfather and man and the lady are my great grandparents.

Someone, not sure who, scratched the dummy out, I would be very very very grateful if someone could fill this in so it looks like there has been no dummy there.

Thank you very much.

Regards,

Ryan

here is my try. If you have the original please rescan iit at a higher resolution. This is a low 230dpi and needs to be between 300-600dpi to get a good restore.

Hello Paula,

Thank you so much, that photo looks brillant, he was only wounded once he got home safely as far as I know. He died in 1965.

Thank you very much,

Regards,
Ryan
