Thanks a lot; identical other than I don't think the paint behind the
heat range numbers could have been red altho the rest is the baby-blue
and red like it...but that picture of front is good enough to
guesstimate the range markings from...

Followup --

Went out to take some measurements to see about making markings --
guess it was actually a red background at one time, can see just a
little tint left in a few places. It seems that what is left of the
red on the silk screening has just turned into a white chalky surface
in that area and since the letters were just the background base coat
it's no wonder there's nothing at all legible where even the chalky
stuff is left. I had thought that was the color coat but the other
lettering and the two vertical decorative lines are still visible for
the most part. Strange...

Guess I'll see about finding one of the inexpensive silk-screen kits
and see if I can make a replacement or just use some of the clear
pressure-sensitive label material and make dark on light and forego
the original look...or, of course, I could just take a paint marker
and freehand it...

I've not tried it but my neighbour has mentioned ink jet printer water
slide transfer paper so that may be worth a look, not tried it myself. A
quick search turned up this sort of thing
