Think that was mostly what we said earlier, Karen. It was the blanked that I couldn't quite read in Reply #2 ~

I've adjusted my original restore - best look for an image a bit like this. I'm not removing the pigeon as I'm on laptop and need to use my Wacom/ and Mac for that.

PS  - I'll waive the 12/6  ;D

I had a go at taking out the pigeon but I'd have to do a fair bit of  work to adjust her arm so that she doesn't look as if she's holding something.

I wasn't trying to be smart - I was agreeing with what had been said and was trying to point out the Blanked bit (if it is indeed Blanked).

Never thought of you trying to be smart, Karen  ;D

 I was saying that I couldn't work out the blanked.

Found a paper size that matches - Imperial Copy Draught = 16x 20 ins.

I'm sure you're old enough to remember Ken Dodd's chartblaster "Eight by ten" ... that's what you get if you cut a 16 x 20 into quarters. ;)

More than that, Geoff - I used to buy 10x8 in Multigrade (satin)  ;D

(for proofs - used the proper stuff for final prints)

I put multigrade (20w50) in my engine.

When I was involved with research in a former life of mine, I had 16" x 20" photo prints prepared. :)
