[WTB/Trade] Older 45 back label (or dead calculator)

[[kby]]

Hi,
Long shot, but I’m looking for an original back label for an HP-45 in “repairable” shape. I can look at a good photo to determine if I think it fits that category within my abilities, but basically no corners or paint chips in writing area missing; nome wrinkling/creasing OK if not too severe. A calculator in any state of (non–)functionality would be fine; cosmetics of the rest of the machine are immaterial.

*Important*
It needs to be from an earlier version where the storage arithmetic section reads:

REGISTER ARITHMETIC: STO - n STORES x – rn —> Rn

it doesn’t matter how the machine itself implements register arithmetic; I only care about the label. Looking to spend ≤ ~$50, or suggest what you are looking for in trade. Please include photo in reply; I expect I’d need to see it in all cases. Thanks!

I presume this replacement label doesn't meet your requirements...

Thanks, but correct. Font looks a bit less fine and missing in power and production info at the bottom.

Maybe if I get desperate, but I can look and wait for a while. -kby
