Not even a stamp? No names or logos seems like a pretty strict requirement for an artisan to adhere to. I only say this because I wouldn't call a builder's identity 'advertising' if all it amounted to was a stamp on the bottom bracket or something, and I certainly would *not* look at a custom frame as merely equivalent to/a product of someone's skill and time. If something as personal as a custom bicycle frame was built by human hands, whether it be an individual or multiple people, I think it should have some marking to identify those hands.
