Question for multiple Fisher receiver owners - Lettering

I'm missing a few letters on my faceplate. I've decided to buy custom lettering decals. Can people who own more than one model receiver tell me: Is the lettering the same size and font style on both the Fisher 400 and Fisher 500 line of receivers?

Chad, can you post a link to the custom decals you got? Also, with the results?

I have a Fisher tuner I'm considering re-lettering, so am curious about the results you get. Thanks.
 
The 400-500C-800C all used the same font/size lettering from what I've seen on mine and the one's I've worked on. I'm almost certain that this font carried from at least the 1959 TA-600 all the way thru the Solid State Models thru 1970 based on comparison with my 800-c and 500-TX and 550-T.
 
They look the same to me for several years. "THE FISHER" is Times New Roman with the other lettering looking like some form of Arial.

Wonder what it would cost to do silk screen templates for at least the 400, 500 and 800 series receivers? Might be a lucrative sideline for someone.
