My dad is doing his autobiography, he has some old back and white photographs, but they are crease. cracked etc, is there somewhere local what can put them back to what they where.

I think Fairs cameras in bebington do that Sandra, I have seen the results in their shop and they can even join two photos together, say you wanted one of your mum and dad together, if you have singles that can be done ...

sent you a PM

Anyone with a scanner and a copy of photoshop can achive similar results .

If i had more time i could do it for you, but im so busy at the moment, you may get a kind offer from obeone of our members.

Im not sure if its still called fairs, something is telling me the name changed.

Yes, Fair's Cameras are now Photo Corner Ltd.

I had an old, very battered wedding group photo from the 1920s restored by Bernard Rinaldo/Hotshots Photography in Moreton. He did a lovely job, even replaced a faded head with one from a smaller group photo the same size.

Can't remember what he charged, but I do recall I considered it a fair price for the work done.

As Mark says, it's worth having a go yourself with Photoshop or some similar system. You can do this without affecting the original pictures.
