41-250 Cabinet Graphics & Refinishing
#1

I haven’t completely finished the 41-250 cabinet due to lack of a reproduction escutcheon.  Until I find a good one, I’ll make-do with a shrunken original which I managed to flatten out somewhat.  In the meantime, in the hopes of contributing something to this forum, I’ve posted some of my reproduction graphics.  This is a small image of the cabinet stickers and chassis model stamp and a link to the high-resolution image:

Notably, I’ve reproduced the fonts/typefaces used for the station tabs (call tabs) and made a graphic tool which can be used to make good facsimiles of any of the original tabs.  Here’s small image and a link to the high-resolution image:

The preceding two images (click the left arrow) show the same tool with variations of the text color.

This is a link to an album with 18 images showing my methods for reproduction of graphics and a little experimentation with making water-slide decals.

I’ll post the cabinet refinishing later.
