I Love Restoring Old Photographs, And This Time I Decided To Restore 23 Vintage Mugshots Of Famous People
I love restoring old photographs (that are in black and white) and bringing new life into them. The pictures I restored today are mugshots. If you didn't know, here's a definition of mugshot: a photograph of usually a person's head and especially face, specifically, a police photograph of a suspect's face or profile.
I'd like to share with you some of the vintage mugshots of celebrities that I restored. What do you think, Pandas? Tell me which one is your favorite!
If you want to see more photos restored please comment and let me know what you would like to see next.

Martin Luther King Jr., Alabama, 1956
Arrested for boycotting racist bus system "On 21 February 1956 King was indicted by the Montgomery County Grand Jury for his boycott of the Montgomery City Lines, Inc. According to the State of Alabama, King and 89 others violated a 1921 statute that outlawed boycotts against businesses."
Rosa Parks, 1955
Frank Sinatra, New Jersey, 1938
He was arrested for "Seduction", which meant coercing a woman to sleep with you under promise of marriage. But it was later revealed the woman was in fact already married. So he was arrested again for adultery.
I didn't know Frank had those scars on his jawline!! Wonder what happened to him.
According to PBS: "The forceps used during Sinatra's birth caused severe scarring to his left cheek, neck and ear that ran from the corner of his mouth to his jawline, which was exacerbated by cystic acne as an adolescent, thus earning him the nickname “Scarface.” As an adult, Sinatra wore makeup to hide the scars"

They didn't call him "old Blue Eyes", because of his green eyes. Good job though. Growing up in Italy, I knew at least a dozen guys with the same generic facial features. Heck, I had a friend that could have been his brother, and I married his ex-girlfriend. 30 years later we are still together, but I wonder where he is. Handsome fellow.
"As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a singer".
eyes are the wrong colour, but other than that, its a fantastic restoration
He worked as a male prositute and his clients were usually married women. I saw that in a documentary. Before he became famous never did understand the hype with him he was a d**k
Jimi Hendrix, Canada
Mick Jagger, England, 1967
Arrested for drug possesion with Keith Richards after the police raided Keith`s house.

These should have a brief description of the charges. It would be MUCH more interesting!
Patty Hearst, California, 1975

My guess is they have found the new colorized filter in Photoshop.

These aren't very good if they are done by hand. It looks like they're run through an AI programme.
I would have liked this post more if there were a brief description of the (alleged) crime each person committed.
I would love to know what each was charged with. Guess it's time to do some research.
