    I wouldnt expect anyone to do it for free, was just requesting where would do it and was as much concerned about the quality (not cost)

    a5 shouldnt be a bother at all, maybe if you let us know whereabouts you are we can help you a bit more. The thing to look out for is obvious repairs, I think even a restored picture should retain some of the time effects as otherwise it looks slightly false.

    How much would I expect to pay to "fix" the face of man on left? i.e is it a big/small job? Most of other photo Im happy with just this part so hoping its a small job.

    Please do not conduct "business" in thread. Take those negotiations to PM.
