COMPLETED Clean and possible colour please
« on: Thursday 08 April 10 09:07 BST (UK) »
Could someone try and clean this photo for me please. If anyone wants to try and colour, great but the clothes look pretty dull :)

Down in the bottom right hand corner there is an imprint of the photographers name. I don't know if it will show up or not. I held the back up to a mirror and it looks like Milton @ Co. This is a kodak postcard photo and would have been taken in Perth or Adelaide, not sure which, at this stage. I did try to scan the back for someone to do their magic, but it really didn't scan well at all.

And a colour one Lois.  Hope it's okay, if not sing out.

Great job Hippy and Caroline. Thanks ;D

Hi again Caroline

I'm also undecided :-\ Some photos look much better in b@w or sepia tones, but I'm always amazed at what different colours everyone comes up with ;D

Thanks so much for this tint.
