This is a photograph, taken in 1959, of my wife's Grandfather, William Newey, being presented with a long service award. He had completed forty years "loyal service" as is engraved on the back of the watch that was part of his award.
It is the only photograph that we have of him, and I would very much appreciate any help in getting it to a good enough standard to have a framed copy made for my wife.
The photograph was taken at Ansells Brewery in Aston, Birmingham.

I believe that just visible to the left and rear of the canteen of cutlery, below the arms of the gentleman making the presentation, is the watch, which is now in my possession, I am delighted to say.

Thanks in anticipation,

Steve.
