Found this in a group of "mishmash". Can anyone read it? Thought it was interesting enough to post.

The little box basically says "This side of card for address."
The line in the middle says "Post Card."

Sorry Jim, but the penmanship is too bad to read the rest.

No problem translating David.

The left side is PhilB's address. The right side is an invitation to the Emperor's afternoon tea party.

Joking aside, I have sent a copy off to my brother, who is with the Japanese Arts Library at UCLA. I'll let you know as soon as I get an answer.
