COMPLETED Please Restore Great Grannie
« on: Friday 27 May 11 00:40 BST (UK) »
Hi -

My first post here, but have always been amazed at the work you do!

Would love some restoration, if possible, of this photo of Great Grannie Harriet with my father.

I have attached a file < 500Kb - here is a link to the larger version of the same photo:

my go
GUIDE FOR PHOTO RESTORATIONS PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR SCANNER BED IS CLEAN AND SCAN AT A RESOLUTION OF 300-600 WITH THE SCALE AT 100% MINIMUM.

If you would like a coloured version, details such as hair colour , eyes and clothing etc.  if known  would be helpful to restorers

Regards Roy

Thank you to each of you!  I have so few pictures of her and you've done wonders with the face and hair :-)
