Can this damaged pic be restored?
« on: Wednesday 18 May 11 11:27 BST (UK) »
Hello all,

This fairly badly damaged photograph is the only one I have of this part of the family, and I am keen to see if anything can be done to restore it in some way.  Can any of you help in any way at all please?

Regards,

John

Thanks Mike.

I had almost given up hope with this picture but the efforts from you all have been really impressive.
