          Better Translation

          Here's more, with a bit of elbow grease and time I was able to transcribe the kanji:

          観艦式參列將士
          Visiting Warship Naval Review Participants Officers and Men

          昭和八年特別演習
          Showa 8 (1933) Special Training Exercise

          歡迎記念
          Hail & Farewell Souvenir
          [or "welcoming souvenir]


          at the bottom:

          濱市

          Yokohama Shi [City]
          ========


          Had to substitute old kanji:
          參 > 参
          將 > 将

          歡 > 観
          濱 > 浜
