Billy in WW2 for repair and colour please
« on: Saturday 10 June 17 19:08 BST (UK) »
Hi friends,

This is my mum's cousin, Billy Connolly, taken during World War Two.

Unfortunately it has a nasty crease through his face.

Any improvement would be much appreciated.

Thanks for looking!

Judy  ;)
Best wishes, Judy :-))
