There is a Spanish surname "Reales" - could it maybe be that?

Paul Messerschmidt Thanks Paul! She does look like she could be Spanish...

She reminds me of my old grannie, who was a young woman in the 1930s, very beautiful

Could the writing at the top of the photo just be the photographer's data - his reference number for the photo, his (male) client's name, and then is the last word just "small" - the size of the print ordered?
(All pure speculation, of course.)
