Translation

Hi all,

I recently purchased a Yuri Gagarin photograph off eBay which had some writing on the back. Can anyone translate the text?

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,
Graeme

Damn, calligraphy always difficult for me to read, but I'll make a best guess.
It seems to me it's written:

Толе ("To Tolya", Tolia should be the diminished form of the name "Anatoly")
на память ("For/As Memory", or "To Remember")
Гагарин (Signed "Gagarin")

Cheers
