I make it:

FUEL TANK SELECTOR VALVE
POINTED AT

then in three columns:

(first column)
"LH"
LEFT HAND TANKS SUPPLY
FUEL TO BOTH ENGINES

(middle column)
"OFF"
FUEL FLOW
SHUT OFF

(third column)
"RH"
RIGHT HAND TANKS SUPPLY
FUEL TO BOTH ENGINES

Back to one column:


FUEL TANK CAPACITY
UPPER unreadable 69 GAL EACH
LOWER unreadable 12 GAL EACH
(12 GAL TANKS FOR unreadable ONLY)

CAUTION:
ALWAYS SEE THAT INSTRUMENT PANEL TANK unreadable
SWITCH POSITION CHECKS WITH SELECTOR unreadable
GAGE FOR LEVEL IN UPPER unreadable
ONLY.
WHEN GAGE READS "EMPTY" TURN GAGE SWITCH
SELECTOR TO OPPOSITE FUEL TANKS.
DO NOT ALLOW FOR TANKS TO RUN DRY AS THIS WILL
CAUSE FUEL SYSTEM TOP BECOME AIR BOUND.


I'm not sure that the last word is "BOUND" but it looks like it. The unreadable words are mostly behind the bracket. Also, I think it says "12 GAL" for the lower tanks and the line below that, but the manual says 14½ gallons per tank. However, there are clearly only two characters on the label, so it can’t read "14½"; maybe it says "14" or "15" but it looks like 12 to me.
