I am writing a novel based in downtown Vancouver. The year is 1996. I want one of my characters to go to Eaton's (Pacific Centre) to the Portrait Studio on the Fourth Floor and ask the photographer to restore an old photo, whose colours are fading. My question is this: Did Eaton's have a Portrait Studio in the Pacific Centre store in 1996, and would they have done photo restoration (probably using Photoshop 2.5 or 3, released in 1992 (1994 for v. 3) at that time?
ReplyDeleteCan anyone help me with this?
Thank you,
Joan C.
I have a small “silver” Eatons Calgary tray that I’m trying to find a value for.
