I have a picture of my great grandfather from 1918 that has been scanned to tiff. Its actually a pretty good scan. I dont know anything about restoring old photos or who has the best services to print it. Any ideas or would any of you be willing to help clean it up a bit? if you are, let me know your email address so I can email the pic to you. thanks..

Speedster00,

You might need to post a low res version so others can see how much work might be needed. Difficult to volunteer otherwise.

Not just good, but one of the best.
