The last pic (light blue) is my quick attempt to get a semi-original feel using the floating mask and block/polish technique. It's actually a little too clean, but at least there are no hard edges.

Hey oem4me,
thanks for the info an pictures. I like the look of what you came up with. I definitely prefer the softer edges. I'm surprised that some of those photos are of factory stenciled gates. I've seen several gates with the lettering not centered properly but I've never seen the waviness in the lettering like in the blue and gold gates. Of course I've been looking at 67-72 gates so maybe they changed their procedure slightly by that time. Or, maybe I've never seen one up close before. People don't tend to photograph the lettering up close like that. I wish they would because I find that stuff interesting.
