The original 1965 artwork made by Smiths Competition which was used to make the dials for our new Tachos.
The original printing method used tampons which were originally photo-etched from positive and reverse negative film.
The red blotch negative is absent.

Just clicking the “Like” button, seems so inadequate - but we have them there to keep threads from getting too cluttered…
I’ll just post this on behalf of all GT40s.com members::
Your relentless search for originality is simply off-the-charts…. Absolutely phenomenal work James!
Thank you for sharing your efforts here!

New Pre '65 Kenlowe Plate replicating the damaged original above.

More post '65 Kenlowe type plates in pro' (curiously not just an address change but the original fonts between the two types are different).

Other plates typically used on P/ cars.

This 2-piece and cored R/H pattern just needed fillets and numbering at the time.
