After and before side by side. (Mrs Bryant. Photographer unknown) This is the only image the client has of her Mother as a younger woman. As the client is in her 60's, the estimated era of the photo is late 1930s - early 1940s and was taken in Germany. Besides having the corners cut off that had to be re-drawn, there were many creases and marks on the surface as well as age 'chroming' of the black areas of her hair.

Mr Bryant before (Photographer unknown) - note the sticky tape! Rather than attempt to do anything with the actual photograph, I scan the image into my computer and create a new photograph. The client receives 2 digital prints (one enlargement if requred) and a CD with the image on it including web and email re-sized for all the online genealogists. Final cost to reproduce and repair this image (left), including prints & CD is $60.00 but costs do vary according to condition of the photograph in need of repair.
