Hi CPorter
Before doing post processing, if you still have the original, getting the best possible scan(s) or copy stand image using Raw format with the camera will help quit a bit.
Some scanners are better than others and some allow changing the exposure of scanning as well to maximize getting detail out of the shadows and/or highlights.
Also do the scan to TIFF so the 16 bits are preserved and avoid loss through compression.
The above should help maximize what detail there is to recover with post processing.
Sometimes (and only sometimes!) if you backlight the print you can get a bit more detail while also lighting it from the front. One has to really watch that backlight so that you do not pick up too much of the paper texture.
