George needs a makeover please
« on: Wednesday 30 October 13 10:19 GMT (UK) »
Here is Flo's cousin George who had lovely dark brown hair and dark brown eyes. He was in the Royal Signal's Corps and this was taken in the 1940s.

I would really appreciate a repair and any black and whites or colour versions will be welcome. As always I thank you for anything you can do. :) ;)
