Restore for the family in Shetland please
« on: Friday 02 March 12 18:38 GMT (UK) »
Hi again, As mentioned in my last post, I don't want to be greedy, but I'm working on a project & hope for a clean-up on this one.

I'd like to use the photos in a framed, photographic, multi-generational display along with a wool Shetland blanket one of the boys in this photo sent to the brother that came to Canada, so my preference is for b&w without any fancy frame set into the photo restore.

Thanks in advance for your help.

1880s for this lot if you're interested, although there are so many kids in this that it's hard to see anything else :P :D

Thanks for that China. You nailed it! The baby was born in 1881.  :)

Thank you.

The five young fellows in this photo are the same as the mustached ones in my Edinburgh picture. Hard to believe isn't it? ;D

I now know where my husband's facial structure, nose & lips come from. He looks exactly like the dad in the pic, sans the whiskers. ;D

Thanks again for taking the time garydevine.

Thank you Irene/Niksmum.

It may be a few months from now, but I will post a picture of the final project on each of the theads that includes the photos that have so generously been restored.

Thanks again for your restoration.
