How would you repair this?

My old Kodak 2-D back has split, so there is a serious problem
developing.

So, progress report? Have you decided to try to tackle this yourself?

I set it aside during the holidays.
I'm going to do the job in a couple of weeks.
I think the approach will be to take the corner down to a fitting
shape and then glue on a piece of hardwood,
perhaps with a screw or small dowel for added support.

Sounds like a plan.

Be really really careful to get both glue surfaces flat and level and it
should work fine. Use the sharpest chisel you can get your hands on.

Be sure to post back here with your results.
