Valuable memories lost forever?
There seems to be an affinity between unique photographs and small children with a pen or crayon; many of us have seen pictures destroyed by playing kids. Damages to pictures by kids and adults alike are not uncommon, especially our most valuable memories seems to be affected the strongest because they are not stored away from the influences of sunshine, fingers and bending. There is, for instance, the small print which was carried for years in your purse or the one complete family picture of you ancestors which was damaged by a leaking washer while hanging on the wall. Some pictures are suffering from neglect, mold and contamination. Many of these pictures can be rescued, so get them out of the damp basement or hot attic and take them out of those corrosive cardboard boxes.
Other pictures were not mistreated, but just aged and lost their contrast or colors over time. Most photographs from the early days actually loose quality over time as part of their natural aging—a process which cannot be stopped. Also these ones can be salvaged and regain their original or near-original vibrancy in color and contrast. Please see examples of image restorations below and decide which of your memories deserve to be restored.
