Title: Delasalle/Gravett/Wilson Australia
Post by: grub on Sunday 14 October 18 02:41 BST (UK)
Would appreciate an age on this one, hoping for the mid 1800s.
The height of the gent would determine which husband of Harriets this is, might be fun to have a guess.
We would also appreciate if there is any way to spruce up the photo some
Many thanks
Grub

1880's it is. He looks quite tall. even sitting down he's up to her shoulder so I would guess at 5' 9"/10"

It's a very small picture, but I've tried to make it a bit clearer for you.

Hi grub,
Is it possible to scan this at a higher resolution - say 300dpi or even 600dpi. You will get far better results for a restoration.

Cheers,

Thank you very much, Pat. I am computer illiterate and don't understand the instructions for sizing to post the photos.
This is just great and I appreciate your efforts.

I'm guessing that this is a copy and that the poster doesn't have the original.
