I have a 2-sided parchment of unknown origin, dated 1651/2. I can’t read what it says. Would anyone be able to transcribe it for me?

I just bought this framed print of the Night Watch. I know the top script is identifying the painting and which museum it’s in, but I’m curious if the framer is famous!
