I have had the original wide Naval Group photo scanned by a photo shop. They provided a smaller copy of the original. It has not been enhanced except that the two punch holes (Father's ring folder) have been removed, as if they were not there as far as I can see. The large copy they did was 6.15 MB. I had Two 14 inch by 6 inch copies printed from the large copy (The same size as the original size).

My father, Norman Lock, collected or kept a number of coins during his time in the Royal Navy in WW2. It is interesting from the point of view of the state of the world at that time and the British empire, as it is with the notes (Money) as well.
I have photos of some of them. 1. Ceylon. Emperor of India (That appears to cover Ceylon). 2. I guess the one may be Egypt, as Norman was in Egypt but I do not know what it is. India. Republic of China. 3. Australia. East Africa. South Africa. 4Newfoundland. Canada. Philip L |

Photo of out side of letter to Norman on HMS Findhorn in WW2 from Louise Neales (I think it is Neales and not Meals) in Canada.

This photo of HMS Findhorn may be a Royal Navy issue photo or one that was printed in larger numbers because it has the words HMS Findhorn on the front of the photo. The photo was with my father's (Norman Lock) other WW2 navy photos.

I have learnt or relearnt after a number of years how to resize a photo on my Microsoft program, using the three dots function. I have a photo of the rear of the Royal Arthur Class 207 photo with all the names of classmates. The front of this Class 207 photo, with names on the rear, was not as good a quality as the Class 207 photo I posted but it is the same photo (other than it was larger).
