A clean and tidy of this budding engineer would be greatly appreciated.
Thankyou,

I'm not so good at restoration but I've had a go. Perhaps someone could improve on this.

Many thanks for your excellent work and quick resposes Ivor and Sirron.  I was suffering from a severe case of 'Restorers Block' on this one.

Thanks to your restore Irene, this battered postage stamp sized print has yielded a beaut result.
Many thanks to you and all others who contributed to the preservation of this valued pic.
