Is this an impossible request? - Completed

This is a photo of my dad's sister who died at the age of 17 in 1929. Can anything be retrieved?
I've seen some amazing results but I have no real hopes for this one. I hope I have re-sized it OK, and attached it properly.

Regards,
Colin

What a tragedy to befall such a bright and lovely young person.

Here's my attempt.

Wow! What a response, and so quick too. I am truly staggered as to how you manged it, but am even more grateful.

Thank you very much, Irene, Mike, Rayfo and MJB. The family story goes that she worked as a seamstress in one of the large fashion houses and she got a sewing machine needle through her finger. She died from blood-poisoning a few days later, which is almost unbelievable nowadays.

Thanks again,
Colin

Oh my gosh 
I suddenly got chills...my Mum was a seamstress and she stiched her thumb on her machine. She had a nasty scar and the nail was forever split down the middle. She always said it was her reminder to keep her hands well away from the machine foot.

I'm sorry that I gave you a shock, Irene.

You would think that a seamstress had a fairly leisurely job, wouldn't you, but it obviously had it's dangers.

Its amazing what jogs the old grey cells isn't it.? 
Haven't thought of that for years and now my Mum is clearly in my thoughts today. (She died nearly 40 years ago) so thank you for that.
