Sorry, I thought you knew the names...
it is addressed to Antonino Lentini in Buenos Aires, but unfortunately I can't read the signature...it seems to be "?do Sins?". Maybe Guido, or Lando?

Hi yes the Guido one has me confused, not sure what it could be. Thought maybe Giuseppe ? Is Guido short for anything ? or proper name ? Thanks

You are right: he wrote surname first, and I can't read it (something ending in "do"...Crudo?), and then the name "Giuseppe". I couldn't read it, as I expected it was a surname.
