Precious photograph in need of repair
« on: Monday 08 February 10 15:15 GMT (UK) »
If there is anyone who could help me restore the attached photograph I'd be very grateful.   It is a little bit beyond my capabilties.  It is a very precious picture of my husband aged 11, which my ninety year old mother-in-law rediscovered, and would love to have on display, but it's in a bit of a state!

Many thanks for any help,

Christine

Dear Roy, Old Hippy, Recycled Hippy, Images Of Time, Irene and Carolyn,

I can't thank you enough for these wonderful photos, and for taking the time to make an old lady very happy.   I can assure you these photos will have pride of place, you must all be extremely clever to do such good work!   
Many thanks to you all,

Christine
