Film-based photographs deteriorate over time partially due to the chemicals and acidic materials used in their development process. Old Town Photo's digital restoration expertise can restore damaged prints or films and convert them into digital format. Once restoration and enhancement are complete, they will be printed on archival material. Three samples of our photo restoration work are shown here.
The first sample is an 1890's photograph with stains, cracks, and completely missing pieces. The sepia print version after restoration is shown at right.

The next example shows a portrait developed in 1930's. The original photo at left had deep cracks and a paper grain that caused its distortion over time, making only horizontal lines of the portrait to be visible.
