ESP 1995 Anniversary

I just had a look through this 1995 catalog:

I noticed that all guitars will come with a logo to mark ESPs 20th anniversary. Does anyone have a guitar with this logo on? Was it printed on or was it a sticker?

I have one they had a 20th ann waterslide decal on the back of the headstock,

 here is a link to my 20th ann vintage plus strat

some of the limited editions models had it on the front of the headstock I think.

Thanks for the Info!
I have a KH-2 from 1995 but i don't know if it came with a sticker or not with it being a signiture guitar.
Maybe the prvious owner removed that along with the made in Japan sticker.

Probably did not have a made in Japan sticker to start with,  I don't think those were added till later on.

As far as the anniversery mark,  a waterslide is more permanent than a sticker, you cannot just peel them off so I doubt that someone would have removed it.  

I don't know if the siginitures had the anniversery mark.  You could ask this in the signiture series section,

there are a lot of people who know more about the signitures series than I do.   

Also how do you know its a 95?

Oh good. Yes i will do that thank you.

rappa666 checks in here every so often,  you may run across him in the signiture series section,  he would probably be able to tell you what it should look like.  ESP has no official serial number date records from that time period, but Rappa has been working on that for a very long time and I think its fairly accurate.

I got a custom shop/custom order KH-3 back in 95. It had no special anniversary markings whatsoever.
