Hello Joy,

Robert van der Torren, who is in the Block Arcade in Melbourne has done a
lot of restoration work for me over the last few years and he has always
done an excellent job ...... even with things that seemed beyond repair.

Cost, of course, is always relative to the standard of the work carried out
...... as with everything else, you get what you pay for.

>From Robert you get proper photos which will last another hundred years
...... not computer prints like you do from the places that do it cheaply.

He is a first class photographer himself ....... and it is worth going in
just to see his work.

Kindest Regards ...... Corinne.
