Hi, Patmar.
Just a couple of suggestions to help you get the best result from your request.
First, you’ve inadvertently posted it to the Tips and Tutorials board instead of the main Photo Restoration board. You’ll have a better chance of getting more people to work on it for you if it goes to the right board.
Second, your image is at a low resolution, which means when restorers zoom in to fix the damage, all they see is pixels rather than detail. You’ll get much better restores if you can send in a higher resolution image.
The easiest way to fix both these things would be to start over again. Rescan the photo at a higher resolution, then post it to the main Photo Restoration board, remembering to change the name of your image or it won’t go through (just add something like “Mk 2” to the image file title). Oh, and there is a limit to the file size you can send in (500 kb) so just go one or too steps up from the resolution you first scanned it at rather than all the way to the highest resolution your scanner will do.
Finally, post to this (wrong) thread again, saying that it has been resubmitted to the main Photo board (so that you don’t get people working on both).
Hope this helps. It is a great photo for those restorers who love a real challenge
Cheers,
Peter
