Harry P for tidy and colour please
« on: Thursday 25 August 11 13:57 BST (UK) »
Please is there any chance that Harry can be tidied up and hopefully coloured.
He was the father of a rellie I have met for the first time, and who has kindly lent me her 'treasures', which have added a fair bit to my own research.
I will see her again tomorrow afternoon to return her things, and thought it would be great to have one of her photos of her dad in tip top shape for her as a small thankyou.

Harry served in the RASC in WW1, so I presume that is the uniform he is wearing.

I do hope one of you artists can help.

Thanks in advance

Jill

Many Many thanks for your hard work. The results are splendid.  I shall print all of them as a small token for my lovely new relative. I am sure she will be thrilled to bits.

Thanks again,
Jill

Gosh,

A girl goes off to bed and more amazing surprises are waiting when she gets up.

Thank you so much. These will mean such a lot to our families.

I will now start my printing-fest and present her with a folio of beautiful images of her late father.

Thanks once again.

Jill

Just a quick update for you folks who did such an amazing job on Harry P.
I was able to make a composite picture of Harry P together with smaller photos of his parents.
The lady who lent me her treasures was overwhelmed. She is not online herself, and had no idea such things were possible, so once again my thanks to you all.

Jill
