Les Paul Model silk screen re-application

I need to know if anyone can help me with how and where to get this done, and if you have an idea of the cost? I've thought of scanning another good 1952 to make a silk screen, but it would be alot easier if I can just get it done as long as I don't have to leave the axe at someones shop for 6 months until the artist gets in the mood. I've asked this question on other forums with no responce, and I want to make sure that everyone understands that the neck and headstock have never been broken.

Most good repairmen should have a screen and the correct gold to do the job .And provided you remove the tuning pegs and bushings its a quick task.
It'll take longer to clean the screen and Squeegee than it will to do the job.I don't Know how much they charge in The U.S.A, but I 'm thinking about
£25 to £30 here in England.

Historic Makeovers/Dave Johnson Restorations does the correct silkscreen...I believe RS Guitars, Lays.Chiris Mirabella,Terry Mueller and Tom Murphy does as well...as for timeframe and cost,I think you would have to contact them.
