Line 41:
** Post-1985 prints have the code engraved on the tape guard.
** Most 2003-2005 tapes distributed by Paramount Home Entertainment have the code engraved on the right side of the tape.
** On most 1984-1987 and 1989-2007 tapes, if the company abbreviation letters from the year-week code on the tape do not indicate the distributor, they will always be BCP (1984-1987), RVS (1989-1998) or DLX (1998-2007).
*** Some factory sealed copies of 1991 and 1998-2005 tapes, mainly those that either have no year-week code at all, or have the company abbreviation letters on the top of the code indicate the tape duplicator instead of the distributor, have the blue or white Deluxe "Film Reel" watermark logo on the original plastic wrap, in place of the distributor watermark logo. The logo is usually pressed over-neath the back of the packaging.
