A big challenge - COMPLETED WITH THANKS
« on: Friday 30 May 08 18:48 BST (UK) »
Hi

This photo was inadvertantly torn up by my aunt and is the only photo of my maternal grandfathers brother who was killed in WW1

I have put it back together as best I could - is there any possibility it can be restored?
