Our Corrections -
We . . .
 | Removed streaks from clothing and dog's hair, very carefully | |
| Removed red bleed-over from everywhere else (every tiny area) | |
| Re-colored the wall behind the couch by-hand artistry | |
| Repaired rips, cracks, tears, edges and missing corners | |
| Repaired tiny scratches using 600X power on-screen zoom | |
| Cropped the picture to center all subjects (erasing the couch) | |
| Re-colored her boots and removed a rip in her nylons | |

< 3rd Set: A Very Precious Polaroid from 1978;
BEFORE PHOTO: (Our Own Son)
Problems Summary:
Another Polaroid: Yes, We fix Polaroids.
To Start: Taken as a 4X4, we converted it into a 4X6.
The photo has a "red-eye" problem.
There's excessive photo-dust everywhere in the picture -
That dust became permanent as the Polaroid dried during its processing.
We Especially didn't like the dust on the boy's nose. That was first on our list of fixes.
There are Flecks or chips on the chair.
The wall looks dirty, shadowy, or old, and needs cleaning up.
The electric wall plug is not necessary and distracts the eye from the photo.
The upper part of the photo is not relevant, so that's where we'll crop it.

Our Corrections -
- We . . .
- Cleaned up all the dust particles; one at a time
- Repaired the red-eye problem
- Cleared up the chips in the back of the chair
- Brushed away the streaks in the chair
- Made the wall plug disappear
- Cleaned up the back-wall to a consistent color
- Cropped the photo to center the subject
- Kept the original color in the seat for character flair
A GOOD NOTE: We CAN Recover Original Colors from Tintype Photos that are Faded to Black.
Our On-Staff Software Engineer has Developed a Program that will Capture Original Color.
Other Photo Restorers Cannot Capture Original Color from Tintype Photographs.
Different Brands of Tintypes: All consisted of Polished Tin-metal for Emulsions;
DuGuerroTypes: Inventor: DuGuarro Brothers (Spain, 1725-1840) Our First Tintype, 1839 (USA)
AmbroTypes: Inventor: John Ambrose (USA, 1841-1860) - First B&W Photograph in 1841.
FerroTypes: (USA, 1863-1917) - Pin-Dabbed with Colors Mixed into its Emulsion - only 8 colors.

BEFORE-PHOTO: Ferro-type - Circa: 1883;
Problem Summary:
First, we were presented with an ash-black photo. We use our own Program on it.
It was thought to be Black & White, but its colors emerged perfectly with our own program !
The years of dirt, oil, grime, and scratches emerged from the 19th century;
It was possibly hit with a cleaner which made the colors run and blend together.
The blue color in the photo was bleeding onto everything. It had a black marker drawn on it.
The original photographer inappropriately painted gold buttons, but was a custom then.
A gold ring was inappropriately painted onto the child's index finger.
A black felt-pen was streaked across the photo ruining the image even more.

AFTER-PHOTO: A Replication Copy was made with Recoveries:
Our Corrections:
We're proud of our professional work on such a rare photo.
Completely cleaned of scratches, oil, and runny bleeding colored chemicals,
We welcomed back a lost photo which originally may have had a grim destiny.
A real face emerged from the black metal and ash-grey images.
A boy, estimated to be relatively 7 years old in 1880 school boy attire,
dressed in a private school uniform, appearing as a traditional 1st Grade Memory.
Appropriately hand colored but in those days the coloring was done with a pin-point,
and not a pen or brush. Chemicals were mixed with a daub of a pin, to produce color.
In a close-up zoom, we saw detail: the worn surfaces on the foot rungs of the stool,
and in more detail, folded socks which couldn't be seen with the naked eye.
The child's foot was turned possibly wagging from boredom from a tedious long wait.
Photographs in the 1800s took a very long time to burn images into a chemical and dry.
In the day, they were using a wet chemical inside the camera which took much longer.
We cleaned, repaired and reconstructed this tintype photograph completely.
Now it's well Preserved in a Copy, with the Original Returned, and Packed Away.
We Thank the Owner of These 19th Century Tintype Photograph for allowing its Display.

BEFORE PHOTO: "The Missing Soccer Ball"
Problem Summary:
From Florida: Their FIRST Photo Restorer in Florida did a terrible job - He missed the ball.
YOU need to Focus on the Soccer Ball (Lower-Left Corner - See Arrow)
The Ball cannot be seen within the blend of the sepia tone. It's almost invisible.
We were asked to Produce a Hand-Drawn Ball - and - "blend" the ball into the sepia photo.
In other areas, We see Glue on the Photo on the hair; The hair will need to be rebuilt.
The Plastic Frame is no longer needed. We'll need to get rid of it.
There's Spots all over the clothing. We'll need to sponge the spots before enlarging.
The bigger a photo becomes, the bigger its spots. All Spots are removed at 700-Power.

AFTER PHOTO:
Our Corrections:
Digital Free-Hand Artistry - The Mark of Proficiently Artistic Excellence
At 700-Digital Macro-Power - We used Digital Free-Hand Drawing -
We Drew the Soccer Ball and Blended it into the Photo as if it was Always There.
We also Drew a Shadow under the Ball to Give it Depth. Blending is the Real Artistry.
It was like drawing a ball by using a Microscope. (Lower-Left Corner - See Arrow)
Also at 700-Digital Macro-Power -
--The glue was erased from his head, replaced by parts of other hair areas.
--His hair was restored by following a hair-shadow under the glue on his forehead.
--Zoomed-in, we cleaned off micro-spots all over the photo to be ready for enlargement.
--We erased cracks, plastic frame, then extended Sepia color to the edge and corners.
--Then enlarged the photo to a 5 X 7 to fit into a common sized frame for the owner.
