Translation Help

Hi

I recently acquired a photo card of an Oberst and he had written a message on the reverse.

Other than it has something to do with k.k. Landsturm Regt no 11 I have no idea.  There is a reference to Oberst Engelbert Zuzzi, but the photo of the Oberst is not Zuzzi.

I would apprecaite it very much if some one could tell me what is written please.

Regards,

Ian

Hello Ian.

Apparently addressed to Oberst Zuzzi.

The inscription reads:

Zur freundlichen Erinnerung an Deinen Vorgaenger beim Landsturm 11 or As cordial remembrance of you predecessor at Landsturm 11  then signed but I am unable to read signature.

Hi Bernard,

Thank you very much for the translation. 

Can you make out the first letter of the signature, I might be able to trace him from that.

​Hello Ian.

I am sorry but I do not want to take a wild guess. It seems that the signature consists of two words. Whether he signed with first name then last name or whether his last name was one of two names who knows?

I have identified the Oberst whose signature I could not decipher.
