RAF c1956: Mr McCarthy Football training.
« on: Tuesday 15 October 19 23:49 BST (UK) »
I'd be obliged if this photo could be cleaned and sharpened.

The original is a small oblong photo and I'd always assumed it was a photo of my father-in-law, until I decided to organise copy photos for each of my offspring and realised the enlarged scanned image is of my late OH as a teenager in the RAF with an unusual old fashioned hair parting.

For some reason the image on my computer is square, but it prints off with the correct sizing.

Hi Peter, 

Your lovely cleaned up image appeared just as my computer decided to behave.

Thank you very much. It will be up to my printer, which version it likes.
