Would it be possible to rescan this photo
It is only 72 dpi
To give restorers a chance of producing a good finished article
it is recommended to scan at 300 to 600 dpi

Hippy  :) :) :) :) :)
Please scan all photographs at 300-600 dpi.
Please feel free to colour/modify any restores posted by me.
An acknowledgement would be much appreciated.
