Newspaper Clipping Restoration ~ Many thanks!
« on: Monday 12 January 09 18:46 GMT (UK) »
Hello everyone,

Can you please clean-up this newspaper clipping?  This is the only "photo" that I have and I’d like to make it album worthy if possible.  Carmino Presta is another of my genealogy brick walls.  I wish I could find his family but I'm not holding my breath.  LOL!

Many thanks for your help!

Take care and keep smiling!

Claddagh

Nothing wrong that I can see.You've got rid of the spots but kept the facial features,can't do more than that.
Good effort. :D

Thank you so much everyone!  I appreciate all your efforts in trying to make a clear image of this grainy newspaper clipping.  It wasn’t much to go on but the results are phenomenal.

BlueHound – I feel bad that you got so engrossed in trying to clear-up this newspaper photo.  Thank you for your help!  ;)

Take care and keep smiling!
