José Barbosa Leiras (1898-1936) - only known photo
« on: Friday 26 May 17 23:01 BST (UK) »
Good evening everyone!

After giving up on finding a picture of her great-grandpa, my girlfriend received this from the Portuguese Army Archives. It's from his army bulletin. Since this is the only known picture of him, I'm kindly asking if someone could restore it.

I have a .tif with 1200 ppi in google drive here: https://goo.gl/1XO78U
The attached JPEG is 600 ppi.

Thanks!
Filipe
