I need a picture or some pictures of the engraving on the bell of a '60s era King Silvertone trumpet so that I can have the engraving on mine restored. There has been a bell repair and the engraving was buffed so much it is almost illegible.

Any help would be appreciated.

I do not know what the variations were from one period to another, but the photos on this ebay auction were pretty good. Let me know if this is similar to yours.
