Peter,
I'd certainly be interested in about a dozen of each.
I've also received email from Ben Ong about replacement HP calculator labels that he has already made. Has anyone here purchased some of him, how do they look?

Hi, I have a couple unused original HP-67 "made in USA" ones left. I could lend you one if it would help them make the labels. I would really be intersted in "Made in Singapore" labels though. Have you put any thought about that yet? I also would be interested in the HP-65 labels.

Please make sure that any label reproductions don't include HP, HP Logos or "Hewlett Packard". Ben Ong already knows about this but I wanted to make sure that it was widely understood.

I Just happened to be in a Kinko's (registered trademark) today and while standing in line, I read their "copying guidelines" brochure which said:
"Names, words, logos and designs used to identify services or products such as "KINKO'S", are considered trademarks or service marks. The owner of a trademark or service mark has the exclusive right to reproduce it. Kinko's Copying Guidelines on trademarks and service marks is designed to uphold the law and requires written permission from the owner to reproduce any trademark or service mark"...

I do not have a 65/67 (yet), but have heard that removing the labels inevitably destroys the label. I'm guessing that this is just printed aluminum foil with a permanent adhesive on the back.
Has anyone tried a 'Goo-Gone' soak? A heat-gun melt? Thread or small nylon fishing line underneath, dental-tool spatulas or a combination of all the above?
Is it a matter primarily of the paint/ink, or rippling the foil?
Lots of this sort of printed foil labels are made for "security" purposes, to expose items that have been tampered with by the user... was this HP's intent?
Has anyone successfully removed a label without messing it up?
