Hi Steve, The lettering on Mauser Luger safeties was white filled until the end of production in 1942. Your missing paint is probably due to a past cleaning with a solvent. Here's a link to a recent discussion on this issue. As you can see, restoring the original ivory colored paint is no big deal. Regards, Norm
