Information Question
Category: Translation - Yiddish
Family Surname: SOLGANIK, LEHNER
Country: Romania
Town: Iasi (Jassy); addressed to Rezina, Bessarabia
Date of Image: 1 December 1925
  Back of a studio photo postcard (Foto Select, str. Apeduc 45, Iasi), dated 1/12/1925, showing a young man playing the violin. The handwriting is in Yiddish. I would be grateful for a full transcription and translation of both sides of the card.

Left side: the dedication and the signature. I think it begins 'tsum eybikn ondenk...' and the signature may include the name LEHNER, but I am not sure.
Right side: the address. I think it reads 'Herrn ... Shmelke(?) ... Rezina', but I am not sure.

Background: my great-grandfather Shmil (Shmuel) SOLGANIK lived in Rezina, Bessarabia, in the 1920s. Another postcard from the same studio (25 October 1926) was sent to him 'from your nephews' Frima, Boris, Volf and Hana LEHNER(?). I would like to know who wrote this card and how he was related to Shmuel.

Thank you very much!
