I think you got the pieces lined up pretty well. I just cloned the sides together.

Hi Anna

Heres a couple of versions for you

Black and white, so you can colour it easier, and a warmer brown coloured one

Hi Anna,
               I'm sorry but I can't make out what it says.
I thought it said To ...................
                                  .................
                                      Carlisle

I think the writing says "John George, Carlisle"
It's probably the photographer - a pretty common thing at that time to sign your work.

Glen, beautiful cleanup job, as always! I tip my hat to you (or at least, tug my forelock  ;D )
