cracked photo.
« on: Wednesday 30 March 05 15:44 UTC (UK) »
I have a photo of my grandfather's grave, taken in the 1930s.
Unfortunately, it has cracks all over it.
Hope can I fix it.?

If the photo only has cracks then it should be a simple mater of brushing them out. If the cracks are large  and cover the inscription, then you may have problems. Without seeing the photo, it's hard to tell. If you scan the photo  and post  it here, we can assess the  amount of restoration required.
