Hope this is an improvement, comments welcome, Chris

This is a good simple clean-up, no frills. I like that. It doesn't look too messed about with, if you know what I mean.

This is really nice! You not only got rid of the damage, but added a very classy touch with the larger background and vignetting of the portrait only. I'll have to remember this, as it is a wonderful treatment for a special picture.

I agree with Timbo, you've done a nice job of cleaning this up without modernizing too much.

That is a good way to hide the hard arms. Great clean up

Good job! I like the way you preserved the colouring, and the vignetting helps keep the overall feel of the photo.

Nice job Chris. Your efforts to 'retain its antique look' worked very well. Like the textures you kept and created. Like the hint of color too.
