Photo Preservation??? I need advice
Posted by: Michelle Eadens (ID *****8761) Date: May 03, 2009 at 16:45:31

I have a great collection of my great grandmothers very old pictures but I am unable to tell who the people in the pictures are. You can tell that at one time, something was written on the back but it has faded beyond recognizing more than a letter or two.
Is there some type of company or anything I can do to possible raise the names off the backs of the pictures? I have tried lightly taking a paper and pencil and rubbing the backs of the photos but I only got the few letters that I saw to start with. Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated.
Michelle
