Photo restoration please - grandmother Ida Maclean 1920s
« on: Tuesday 23 October 18 13:38 BST (UK) »
Afternoon to you all

My nanny Ida Maclean from Benbecula died a day after my father was born in 1931, age 28, and we have never been able to locate a photo of his mum until now! A cousin has located what we genuinely believe is a photo of nan, after much family searching.  The photo isn't in great shape but is there any chance the creases could be erased somehow so that we can then frame her? Any help with this would be immensely appreciated. The original scan was 990kb so I used "paint" to resize down to below 500mb.
Thank you.  McVitie. :)

Dr Dude and Peter - thank you so much for your contributions - these too are incredible and I'm now spoilt for choice! My family will be so delighted with all of these enhancements which now  reveal my nan rather than the damaged original.

Thank you all again.  ;D
