I recently seen in the HideHitters that actually K Zildjian Istanbul has an open script logo similiar to hollow ink logo Zildjians.
Here is the description and pictures from HideHitters:
Here's a seventies open ink script logo on a K.Zildjian cymbal, Made in Istanbul, Turkey. Somebody tried to polish it off, but still visible.

Be assured that K. Zildjian didn't do this.
Aren't those "hollow ink logo" Ks the Canadian-made Ks?
(later to become Sabian)

I would not rely on HideHitters as a definitive source.
I was thinking of this one....and it's not hollow.

And I just noticed the "Zildjian" ink on the original image ... it doesn't look original at all; like someone took a sharpie and tried to draw it on.
Oh well, time for coffee.
