- Restoration notes
- This was an interesting one. Quality was absolutely superb; detail's incredible. Printing technology is often what holds back image detail in this period, and the paper texture is really pretty much unnoticable at this scale. In any case, this is excellent work. This does show up some flaws. One knee is pretty badly out of focus. The edges had some pretty major damage, lower right hand corner was probably the worst. The background was very dirty - probably because people selectively handled it - but since that's just a smooth bokeh it's not that big of a deal; any minor variance from the original is not meaningful. Some noticable damage around the edges of a sharp transition from light to dark ; that might be some chemical thing, like dye leeching, might just be particularly noticable since it's more precise work; in any case, I fixed it.

This is an edited version of the file: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:British_Empire_evolution.gif on wikimedia, which used to be on this page. The old version seemed to suggest that the Republic of Ireland rejoined the British Empire after 1938 sometime which is obviously untrue. I just re-edited the .gif to reflect the fact that this is not true.
