Roy
GUIDE FOR PHOTO RESTORATIONS PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SCANNER BED IS CLEAN AND SCAN AT A RESOLUTION OF 300-600 WITH THE SCALE AT 100% MINIMUM.

If you would like a coloured version, details such as hair colour , eyes and clothing etc.  if known  would be helpful to restorers

Regards Roy

I would just like to thank all of you for taking the time to restore this treasured picture for me, the photo is for very, very elderly man by the name of John from Scotland, he is very happy, he does not understand how computers work so I am extending thanks from me and him to all of you for the time that you have taken on this for us.

I will show him these updates today if matron allows me

Once again many thanks

Soren
