How to Tell

 * Tapes that were duplicated at Magnetic Video Corporation would have "MAG1" engraved on the back of the tape.
 * On Canadian copies, the engraving would read "MAG-2".
 * 1984 tapes duplicated at CBS/Fox would have engraving on the right side of the tape that says "CBS FOX."
 * 1985-1987 tapes duplicated at CBS/Fox would have printings on the bottom middle side that contain serial numbers and a day and year code that is read in Day/Y. Additionally, there may also be a side label digit.
 * For example, if the day and year code reads "1656", that means the tape was printed on the 165th day of 1986.
 * Technicolor Videocassette continued these printing methods, in very invisible dark ink with a time next to the date and a white barcode sticker on the left side, during the next three years, following its acquisition of CBS/Fox's duplication facilities and spin-off from VCA in 1987.
