3rd and final Gage Boxing Booth

[Rabbit B]

Cor what a smashing picture and what a lovely job both Mike and PaulaToo have made of it Liz

How did I managed to miss it! So many different views of the same thing and all brilliant!

Congratulation Mike and PaulaToo[/size][/color]

So very glad I found this one!

Good, ennit, Rabbit.
Did you see threads 1 and 2 with the same booth on?
(don't ask me to find them for you.  )

Black and white as requested. Yellow now toned to match an actual sepia print.

I apologise for multiple posts that are frowned on by most strings however this was not a tutorial simply a very difficult restore that evolved through extensive trial and error, advice, and a bit of luck.

Where are the original posts you mention earlier Liz/Paula I'd like a look, I might just learn something.


P.s got the washing done at last, cleaned up a bit and made the bread so Marg has withdrawn her divorce request.

I like that better Mike.
I see you've found the second one....
They somehow grab you don't they. At first I thought it was hopeless, then I couldn't stop.

Hi Folks

Call me daft but I prefer the black and white one too, much more authentic and most beautifully done!

Thanks for that Mike it is nice to see it!  The colours are fun, but they didn't have coloured pics when this was taken I think!

World wasn't black and white, Rabbit, bit of the back to reality stuff.
Pictures aren't all that old, actually, and there was always tinting.

With most old restores I colour first to get the variety of tones then convert to sepia or black and white.

We respect everybodies view, and all suggestions are considered.

At least we have not had the old style pedantic outbursts that usually accompanied any slight deviation from the "mend it, post it once and no discussion" faction. 
By re-posting I have broken the unwritten rules again. Regretably in the past I have met with such unwarranted criticism and have even withdrawn from RC repairs for a time.
