Question is there a way to clear these cracks and dirt spots?

Hello all,
I got this old photo scanned, and it just got lots of cracks/dirt on it...

Is there a way to fix the unwanted dirt/cracks without losing the details?
Anything? something? Please help otherwise i'm doomed to work on this guy's chest all night long.

Any help would be highly appreciated!!!

Re: Old photo => Dirt & cracks

uniguide, welcome to RP.

images like this i use lots and lots of clone, smudge and airbrush. you could try things like color replacer and that sort, but i just find cloning easier in the long run.
