The ones I have are either Bell sound, Nashville matrix or ARP stamped, sometimes a combination of 2 stamps.

The Contours boot looks exactly like the issue, but doesn't have any stamps, just lightly etched in numbers, as do presumably all of the other "reissues" that were produced in the early 80s for the U.s. collectors market.

On Motown the only ones pressed by Mariano were the Satintones and Contours (have to disagree with Joe, the pressing is easily to detect). The other boots were on Tamla, Anna and some other early Detroit labels such as Fascination etc.

If you need to check any feel free to pm, got a complete early Motown collection.
