John & the weirdest, date stamp copies ?

[Paul Shirley]

Just wondering if it’s all the copies that have that date stamp  are counterfeit?  or were some of them legitimate?  Every copy I have ever seen with it on was fake

Reason I brought this up is that I keep seeing a legend ( not my choice of description)  Playing that copy has been for many years along with others.  I always thought it was a boot but started to doubt myself , I myself am on my 2nd original seems er? Legends   No longer have to play original records

There’s also a look alike boot without the date stamp - according to JM’s book there is an original with a clear date stamp as well as one without and a boot with an unclear date stamp so to be sure it’s better to check the matrix details which are slightly different.
You’re probably aware of this. PT

just hold it up to the light, if you can see through it, its a boot, also boots have really glossy labels whereas the original label is matt
