Glad I could help with the first one, Celt. Sorry, I spent a few hours on it and don't have time to do another. Someone else's turn.

Just a couple of suggestions: If possible, scan the image; if not, at least photograph it as straight on as possible; more restorers might then attempt it. Second, start a new post for your second request; more potential restorers will see it.
Cheers,
Peter
