I posted your question on the NCRS Technical Discussion Board. I didn't see any reproductions in Dr. Rebuild or Paragon and I assume you knew that already. Any that I have seen have been on that popular auction site but rarely and finding one specfic to 1973 would seem harder to find.

Joe Lucia, who is an NCRS Tech Board expert (in my opinion), says that Dr. Rebuild carries some of these. Upon double checking part number 8999836 for your 1973 is for only the Ignition Lock Sleeve but does not list a label for Starting Instructions for 1973. Only '69-'72 and '74-'76.

I sent you a PM earlier so barring that here is what else I learned from posting your dilemma on the NCRS Tech Board:
Scott, I have a '73 which uses the 327568 label which is made out of a fiberglass material. I believe this fiberglass material is unique to '72 & '73models. The reproduction label will be made out of paper (you should double check this before going the repro route). I got lucky and discovered the same label was used on the Monte Carlo (see photo) and thus saved a fortune. It might have been used throughout the entire GM line for '72 & '73. The '74 label is different and made out of paper. Hope this helps.

If you get the repo from Osborn let us know if it is on the fiberglass woven material. I am looking for one for my 73 and have not found one yet.
