Title: Gladys Beaudrie and Lon Brown Mehar, Texas
Post by: BillyBowlegs on Saturday 07 March 20 17:04 GMT (UK)

Dear Rootschatters,

This is the only photo I have of my half sister Gladys Beaudrie. It was taken about 1934 in Mehar, Texas. Would it be possible to remove the lines and perhaps give it a bit of color. I know the image is only about 64kb so it's rather small, but I'm hoping someone can work their magic with it.

Thank you and God Bless.

Billy

Thank you Pat and Thank you Peter.

Those are both beautiful restorations and I really like both colored versions.

You didn't have much to work with because the photo was small, but you both did outstanding jobs.

I really like the soft pastel colors of the clothing.

Thank you so much for taking the time to improve this old photo. What wonderful talent you both have!

All the Best,

Billy

Thank you Carol and Thank you John. Carol, I'm so glad to see that you are still at it. You have been so kind to restore so many of my old photos in past years. Once again your talent exceeds itself and your restorations are beautiful.

John, you also did a marvelous job at restoring that old photo. I can't thank you enough for taking the  time and effort at applying your skills to restoring my old photo.

It's so wonderful that Rootschat has this restoration forum and that there are so many skilled and talented people to restore these old family photos for people. It really brings people back to life when someone can take an old cracked damaged photo and turn it into a work of art.

Thank you so much to both of you.

All the best,

Billy
