I received a letter from Jackie, her letter said
“Please find enclosed a photo of my dad, which I hope you can restore. My dad died in May 1947 and I was born a month after in June 1947, this photo is all I have of him.”
Here’s the photo I received
Here’s the photograph after restoration followed by Jackie’s email to me when she had received the enlargement
“Dear Richard, Thank you so much for what you did to dads photo, I never knew a photo in that condition could be restored perfectly. I can now get a proper image of what my dad looked like, as I never had the pleasure of knowing him. I have one remaining sister and she was only 7 when he died, she only remembers bits n pieces about dad, it may sound strange but this photo will bring me that much closer to dad, n you have managed to do that for me, n I thank you for that…” Jackie
