I was wondering if anyone has a higher resolution version of this photo of the DeSoto design studio in 1956. We (the National DeSoto Club) are running an article on designer Vincent Geraci and I would like to use as clear of an image as possible.

FYI, Vincent Geraci will be at the NDC convention in Chatham, Ontario in July for the Saturday car show. For more details regarding the convention, visit www.desoto.org/events

Here you have your picture denoised. Could do much better, but just shortly!  - SERGE -

Here is his contact info: https://www.midcenturycarart.com/

For an acceptable quality the scan should be done at 300dpi.  - SERGE -

Based on the window size, and the radiators below them, and the time, this looks like the old Chrysler Engineering "six story" building on Oakland Ave in Highland Park.
Been in that building many tmes, now demolished.
