I have a set of IBM keycaps with CAD symbols front printed that I can photograph if you like. I also have some medical keycaps, but those are from unicomp, so not sure if you want them. One of the "model C" keyboards has F1-F12 front printed on the numberrow, though I don't have it. I have also catalogues two types of the "bottom half" of a keycap and four different variations of relegendable (clear) tops.
Just say what you need and I'll take pictures.

i think it would be OK to post all "IBM compatible" key caps here; so Unicomp, Signature Plastics, moogles even.

stems, stabilizers, and barrel inserts are part of the cap too, so feel free to post pictures of those. they may be useful references for wiki and forum posts.

i've been know to give away anything i am not using. and i don't use most F keys and certainly none above F12.
i plan on bringing a box of caps to the KeyCon, so if anyone is looking for a missing cap ...
