Well the combination of not having the photo stored in temperature controlled environment, the attic, and the photo most likely not being properly fixed, or archivally displayed is speeding up its deterioration. The easiest and most cost effective method of restoring it is to digitally retouch,enhance the image. That said you almost certainly want to preserve the original image. To slow down the detioration process start by taking the photo out of the attic and place it inside in an area that is not brightly lit. If it is mounted in a frame or matte, remove it from the matte. The matte may not be archival and could be leaching acids into the photo paper. Instead mount the photo in an archival matte with glass placed over it, you can find the materials at light impressions, an online photo archival store. In terms of what can be done to restore the image traditionally if you have a large library in your area with a preservation room, and a preservationist would be a good place to take the photo to in order to be looked at and evaluated,if you dont have a library then look for local historical societies, or museums. From there they can suggest methods that you can do to preserve the image, or suggest a place that does both digital and traditional photo resoration.

Yup, my great-grandmother was born in Gdansk, which at the time she was born was called Danzig. However, being born at the time (in the mid 1800's) even though they lived in what was called West Prussia, they were more of German descent living in an area that is now Poland. So when my Great-grandmother wanted to be German, she was German and when she wanted to be Polish she was Polish -- depending upon which way the wind blew. She had a great sense of humor

My dad was the pollack. My hubby's the leprechaun whose momma descends from 3 of the Salem witches. Her great-something grandfather was also the idiot who fell off the Mayflower cuz he was too impatient to stay below deck during a storm. Almost have to wonder what would have happened if those sailors hadn't have rescued him.

I found out I was more Puerto Rican than I thought I was and I was Spanish from my mom's side of the family also.
