undream's thread int he forge about his home made electro etcher brought up a question for me.

I have a "Yankee" brand blade I am currently refinishing. By time I got all the pits out the makers stamp was gone. I originally intended to generate a copy of the logo in photoshop and use that as a transfer to etch the name back onto the blade.

His thread got me to thinking about it and whether you guys had an archive of makers marks somewhere that you all used for the purpose of remarking blades after restoration when needed.

Does such an archive of makers marks and logos exist for this purpose?
