== About the 1991 copy of "The Jungle Book" you bought today... ==

You said you bought a 1991 copy of "The Jungle Book" that was printed on the 344th day of December, so I deduce there's a dark ink printing on the bottom spine that follows this code: "x 344 90 xxxx" The first digit is random (I think) and the last four indicate the time your copy was pressed. Does your copy have that sort of code?

Also, I have 1991 Canadian copy of "Peter and the Wolf" duplicated by AstralTech but with the same kind of printing; it reads, "5 354 90 0538" - that means it was printed on December 20, 1990 at 05:38 AM. I'm assuming this kind of printing was from a tape manufacturer and not a duplicator. Your copy was duplicated at Technicolor, right?

:My copy definitely has a dark ink printing. The first digit on my copy, which I believe might be the number of the spine label, reads 4. The date code on my copy means my copy was printed on December 10, 1990. The time part of the code reads 0641, meaning my copy was printed at 06:41 AM, and my copy was indeed duplicated at Technicolor, and it has the DTMF tone sounds at the beginning. My copy appears to be on a Memorex cassette, although I don’t know if Memorex printed out this type of code. The regular print code on my copy reads 032291-A, meaning my copy was printed on March 22, 1991. What the letter A stands for — I’m thinking it’s some sort of shift-code prefix or something.
