But here is the reason why I posted it. This Auto'd picture from Bobby Valentine back in his playing days was damaged in a fire but with the help of the
Photo ER and modern Digital Technology it looks like not thing happened to it and it has been resigned. Although the second photo does not show it resigned by Bobby V I can assure it has been and he was told the story as well. As to why they wanted the photo signed, after he asked where they got the photo of him at a younger man

one if the Photos from the fire before

And now the after

Maybe it's just me, but I think the "after" looks like a very poor Photoshop job.

Yes it is just you
Well the photo he had (the original) was 40 years old and it can be hard to match colors.
The guy who sent him the photo with all of the others spanning 100 years of his family said what every costs he wants them restored
I talked to the Photo DR today by phone since I'm going to have him restores some photos that can wet for me. He said so far the bill is over 60k and the client
has paid that and sent him some more to finish the job. Looks like this is going to cost upwards of 75k or more to have the photos restored.

To me it looks alot like the Seinfeld episode with the guy putting George's boss back into the family photo.
