Desperate restoration help please
« on: Thursday 15 April 10 22:15 BST (UK) »
I am going to my uncles funeral tomorrow and would love to take this photo for my aunt.
It's a bit worse for wear after 60 years.
Can you help please?

Sorry I had an early night ( long trip today)
Thank you so much! ;D
It's so sad that photos get put away in cupboards and drawers and end up looking like this.
It's the only photo we have of when he was a young man. so once again
thank you both :-*
