This timeline of trademarks (stamps) runs from 1900 right through to the present. Yes there is a company ownership and location change from K Zildjian Istanbul to Avedis Zildian in the USA, via a short stay in Canada. But its seems handy to provide the added context of a continuous series when you want to identify a trademark. There is a separate section for each production era which goes into more detail about the cymbals themselves rather than a focus on how to tell the trademarks apart. This timeline view is here because it represents the familiar style for presenting trademarks. There is lots more to cymbals than just the trademark stamp and the Eras Portal is where the rest of the information will be presented.
