There are a number of videos of people fixing cracked 78s on Youtube. I remember seeing one of someone in I think Japan doing a very thorough walkthrough and then actually playing the record successfully, but I can't seem to find it now. Obviously there was an audible click, I don't think it's possible to make it "like new," but it was definitely playable, and if you have a USB turntable you could remove the click with audio restoration software.

I would imagine at any rate that some kind of magnification must be necessary to make the grooves actually line up.

Oh and one more thing, maybe try imgur.com for your images? Best of luck whichever route you go!
