Restore Two Small Photos
« on: Sunday 21 October 12 14:24 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone.

I was about to hand a couple of photos that I just found to some cousins but thought they would appreciate them more if they were cleaned up.

Just wanting the creases and stains removed if possible.

Thanks for your time.

Here's one of them - I've squared it up as I thougt it probably looked a bit better but kept it to original tinted colour.
