How to fix canvas marks (lemmynsfw.com)

I thrifted a canvas painting and it has some black marks on the top edge. Does anyone know how I can get rid of them without the paint I use to cover it up turning out to be a completely different shade of white?

I'm just guessing here but my first thought is a good eraser.

thanks, I'll try that out.

Thought of a possible idea: since all the markings are on the edge, I could get some artificial vines and hang them up over the edges of the canvas like a frame, covering up the markings.
