• There's a little cleanup that could be done, but it's relatively minor and a good first project for someone if they want it. On the whole, it's not the most exciting image, but it's decent for its time. Support, prefer restoration. Adam Cuerden ^(talk)_{Has about 8.6% of all FPs.} 22:41, 9 November 2023 (UTC)

FatCat96, nice restoration. On the image page, consider adding links to the other versions of this image, namely [1] and [2]. As example, see Adam's current nomination [3] [4]. Bammesk (talk) 04:24, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

@Bammesk. I have also restored this photograph, which I believe better represents Chandler. 🌹FatCat96🌹 Chat with Cat 05:42, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
