Posting another for you wonderful restorers to have a go.
I have plenty of these, I would like to restore most of them over time, so i will post one every now and then.
You all do such beautiful work.

Feel free to restore and colour

Nice job guys

thanks very much

The file is actually a lot larger, i had to sacrifice some quality to get it under 500k to upload.

But looking very good.
Thanks again Morrie and Carolyn.

Hi Gareth...It's a lovely photo but quite pixelated and only scanned at 200dpi..here's a useful link on scanning an reducing images with best quality for future reference.

Be back with a restore later.
