Couldn't help taking a crack at it. I cleaned up the sky and brought
in a little color in the sky. The sky shouldn't compete with the
figures, so I went for just a little color. Cloned out a number of
problems in the figures, but didn't work on the faces. Too little to
work with.

Cleaned up the yellow in the sign. Ran it through a High Pass
filter/Overlay. Removed the "annotation" because viewers don't care
what was done.

Anytime you're working with scans of old photos, the quality of the
finished job will depend on the quality of the scan. This was a poor
scan to begin with.

This is my effort at repair:

It's a pity that the repaired photo is so much smaller than the original, and
has lost significant detail as a result. Otherwise, very nice.

I didn't pay attention to the size, and the image I downloaded is only
567 x 800 at 72 ppi. That's OK for web viewing, but if you want it at
4" x 6" at 300 ppi for printing if that's the desired use here it is:

I've had a modicum of success enlarging small photos with Topaz Labs' Gigapixel-AI. Might be worth a look if you want it bigger without it going all pixilated? I believe they have a free trial but I'm not sure what restrictions they have on that version.

Disclaimer: No connection; just a happy user. Also, the blurb implies miracles, but the results are still not too bad.

Cheers,
Magani
