Help for World War 1 soldiers

Hello
Is there a chance of saving this photograph of 12 regiments pictured with an Australian amongst the group.
Thankyou in anticipation.

Thankyou Ian Wilson... so much... I did not think that this was able to be saved in anyway, and I am so grateful. This photo will be accessible to others from within the collection at the Mount Pleasant District History Room in South Australia.
Thankyou to everyone who has helped in this preservation... there will be more to come!!!
Regards
