Here is a quick and simple way to turn your photo into an
old photo.
If you want a quick and easy way to do photo retouch online

and editing tool.
First of all, open up the photo you want to edit. Make sure
to make up a backup copy of your original before working on it.

First, lets turn the photo in black and white, go to Image »
Adjustments » desaturate.
Then apply some brightness/contrast to it, giving the image
that over-exposed look. so go to:
Image » Adjustments » Brightness and Contrast. I set 20 for
brightness, and +30 for contrast. You may need to adjust this slightly on your
image though.
Now add some grains to the photo to give it the old look. Go
to Filter » Artistic » Film Grain.
Now, for these settings, you can adjust it according to your
taste, I set mine at:
Grain: 3, Highlight Area: 2, Intensity: 4
Next, add some of those old/brown look that you see on all
the old photos, so create a NEW LAYER, and fill it with: #8A681B, now set its
Blending mode to: Soft Light
That's it, Enjoy :)
