K Zildjian Istanbul Timeline

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.
