First, thanks to the OPs who posted these form their collections, archives and the like for the community to enjoy. The images may have made appearances earlier than in Sept of 2011 on the site; that was simply the date of set of pages I landed on. No intention here of overlooking anyone's earlier efforts.

Second, is this something people on the site care about one ay or another? For me it is fun working with these old photos and I know that not everyone has Photoshop to try to bring them back for themselves (although I am sure many could do a much better job than I did with the software). I'm not trying to fix photo blemishes, just bring back some color. I realize that some may object to changing the originals, so I would like to know what you think. Stop? More? Don't care?

I think anything that improves these great old pics is a good thing. Thanks for your efforts, they work well.
