Thanks for posting your request.

Please see the thread at the top of the Ethnographic Forum regarding posting pictures for translation. You also need to post a picture of the whole item. It would be helpful to post much larger pictures of what you wish to have translated--the ones you have put up are difficult to read.

Regards,

Ian.
