Anyone translate the words & name signed on my Battle of Isandlwana 100 anniversary limited edition (850) print originally painted by Fripp? 've had two of them for years and now I'm going to sell one but don't remember what the writing says and who the individual(s) were and why they signed it. Course I lost the paper I had the information written on long ago.

Good Morning.
The centenary print issued by the Naval and Military Gallery was limited to 850 and signed by Major L.A.D. Harrod, Colonel of the Regiment. This gentleman might be one of the two you are looking for. Regards.

There seems to be a lot more words involved. I managed to post a picture of the bottom right corner of the print along with the print itself.
