Back in the late 1990s one of our client friends got into the side business of changing headstones. Many of them had been sold with the date of death and the 19 already engraved. He would photograph the old headstone and we made him a full size print on a cheap velum type paper. He then ground down and polished the granite, and used his laser to re-etch the image. It was so powerful of a laser he had to have a federal permit to own it.
Some of his customers just wanted him to grind down the 19 and re-etch the date the person died. It did not look as good but the family did not want to spend a lot of money on a headstone.
