Dad.
« on: Friday 01 January 10 14:24 GMT (UK) »
Happy New Year to all  :D ;D ;)

This is the only picture I have of my father about 1940, actually its a scan of the only picture I have of him, (yes I know a tall order) but a clean up would be good if possible, a little colour even better, he had blue eyes and black hair , made all the more more blacker in appearance by the olive oil he used to keep it scraped back (Al Capone style). 8)

Hoping you can oblige.

Thanks in advance.

Peter. ;)
