Gunner John for restoration
« on: Sunday 25 September 16 05:21 BST (UK) »

Gunner John of the 4th Field Regiment, Royal Artillery died June 1942 in Libya during WW2.

Could I please have his photo restored in sepia/black & white and also a colour version if possible.

Thanks,

Ian

You always supply such great scans, Ian.     :) 
Is this of one of yours, or of someone in a cleaned up grave?

You don't need this, but it was fun to work on!  ;)

Don't know why but it kept telling me my repair was too big - it does that - for no known reason.  Very annoying but never mind.
