    Does anyone save those labels we find in the bottom of games? I do, and try to put them back in the right place after wiping off whatever dirt (pinball grime-carbon/grease/metal) I am able. I save whatever I can for the sake of originality. If anyone has original Gottlieb labels, from the 1970's (60's are different) and willing to pass them along, I will pay for postage. This question touches on two topics discussed here recently. Original vs. repro, and parts swap threads. Nothing to do with the game playing better, but I look at my projects as preservation of a classic piece of "Americana". Once they are gone, they are gone-labels too!
    TIA

    I'm talking about individual relay labels (thousands score relay, etc.), not the larger ones that have motor info. Peter's site is a great resource for many stuff, but not sure if he would want to deal with 20-30 small individual relay labels....

    The two important factors to me are- paper authenticity (no matter what I try, most modern paper won't look that aged) and the other being the rounded corners on the labels. Glad this thread has gotten people thinking about it.

    Quoted from wayner:

    Absolutely brilliant Peter-the coin adj & fuse strips were just what I was looking for for my current resto.
    And an unusual one on my High Hand motor board:

    The 25v fuse is normally a 15amp but shown as 10amp and the playboard light shown as 15amp when normally a 10amp. Any views?

    Not unusual at all. They can be many different values depending on the load they need to carry.
