Saved from Blitz. Tidy/colour for a special photo
« on: Wednesday 04 March 09 15:22 GMT (UK) »
Posting this for Sandy M, who would love to see this spruced up and minus wear and tear, and maybe some colour? For reference - Young Sandy is blondish like her Mum, little brother was a carrot-top (light auburn).
Poor photo! been through a lot courtesy of Herr Hitler so anything you can do would be great.
Thanks!

Thanks for the great efforts to date. Certainly an improvement on the old photo we have. Colour is nice - except carrot top had vey much lighter auburn (it was such a wonderful shade!) The B & W photo has come up well.
Thank you all.
