No such animal. Doesn't exist. If you are concerned about this, then you have to find original glass from parts cars. Or post in the Wanted section what glass you need.

Location: Sept. 1958		I ran into this a couple years ago for my 61. There was only one glass place that was licensed to use the PPG logo but their contract with PPG expired at the end of 2018, right before I contacted them. They didn’t keep the contract current due to supply and demand. Stencil places seem to only make larger stencils than what was used. I ended up buying nice original tinted glass from JC Auto, but Jeff there told me that a past employee, who was good with computers, made some stencils for a 56 they restored. So it can be done, I’m sure there’s a market for it, albeit small.

Location: So. Cal		I made a pattern for someone by request a couple of years ago. The font isn't exactly the same, but it's pretty close. You are welcome to use it if you want to get a template cut out. The solidworks file is too large to post here, but the Adobe Illustrator version is small enough. If you would like the original solidworks files, just email me for it. I think it was 2017 version.
