Hi Mikhailsmum,
Have you got the original? If so can you rescan it at 300-600 dpi.
This is scanned at 72 dpi and you will get much better results with a higher resolution.

Many thanks Jim. It is much brighter and clearer. The original was very poor to start with. Irene, my son does all my scanning for me as I'm useless and he's not here now, but thanks anyway. Love seeing all the fabulous work done on this board.
