Long shot but this is the best place to ask...does anyone have a clear photo of the layout on an IBM Model M 1394620 122-Key US ISO Layout?

Hi ! It might not be exactly what you want but I have an IBM model F 122 French ISO layout.
It is in a pristine shape (because it is my main keyboard).

Any reason you don't want to do a Google image search ?

I guess he did. Maybe he wants the pics with higher level quality.

Searching this model number, you only stumble upon his Geekhack post :
Even longer shot, but does anyone out there have a photo of a IBM Model M 1394620 122-Key US ISO Layout?
I'm 99.5% done my resto-mod but I have faaaaaaaaar more keycaps than I do spaces left.
I did order a set from Unicomp as well as some coloured specials and media keys so I know I have some doubles but I have some barrels that do not have a corresponding key or do not have a stabilizer when they should.
I am looking at the photo that I took before disassembly but was told the layout that was on there was a shit-mix of US ISO, German and Unsaver keycaps so it is not a reliable reference.
https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=104022.0
so I assume he wants a pic to put the keycaps in their right spot

Yep, that was why...but in the end I worked backwards from a firmware layout file I received and placed keycaps accordingly. It may not be 100% correct but....
I have discovered that 4 or 5 keys on the numpad do not register when pressed in the GUI firmware tool. The Bluetooth/USB controller board conversion has been stalled for a while of my own fault and the novel coronavirus pandemic isn't helping. It has been bolt modded and is still 99.5% complete but I am just now having some time to try to solve what should be as easy as tying shoes.

People here and on GH have repaired Model M matrices before using conductive copper tape or conductive ink, you could also order replacement sheets from Unicomp.
