Graduation Class of June, 1936 Photo: Compliments of Phyllis McLaughlin

Aged photo papers simply do not withstand the test of time. Necessarily, whenever I receive a photo, I often   spend considerable time on restoration. In the June, 1936 group graduation photo shown above, there were multiple wide white breaks in the photo surface (top to bottom) and many surface scratches and blemishes where images of individuals affected had to be recreated. Above is an example of a man who decided to not wear his mortar board, but sixty-eight years later, we put his hat on his head!...the wonders of computers! ...Extreme Makeover with Photoshop tools!
