Here's some sure fire ways to tell if yours is a repro.
Sure fire way number 1: Next to last page says it is a reprint.

Sure fire way number 2: Even though it is a Plymouth Barracuda Operator's Manual, there is an order form in the back to get your $6 (including postage and handling) factory service manual for Dodge.
Or maybe I'm wrong and the NOS or originals actually did offer Dodge, not Plymouth, service manuals?
But probably not, because I must have ordered my $6 Plymouth service manual by tearing out the perforated order form in the back of my original 1969 Plymouth Barracuda Operator's Manual. I'll dig it out in a day or so and post photos.
Stippled and perforated are not synonymous.

The 1969 Barracuda Operator's Manual came in a 2 compartment clear plastic envelope along with an 8 page warranty booklet and a notice about PB and PS.

The features original manuals have that repros probably don't are:
1. There are three page 4s, because page 4 is a double-sized fold out.
Original is above, repro below.

2. Originals had two, maybe three, different colors of blue on interior pages, depending on your color perception. Plus the cover was a another different color of blue. Repros probably don't have any color on interior pages.

3. Originals had blue color on the inside front cover that is the same blue as the front and back covers. This is a different blue from the interior colors.

4. As mentioned, the order form was perforated. Mine is missing, because I tore it out and ordered the $6 service manual. I received a Plymouth manual, not a Dodge. Still have it, and it has lots of greasy fingerprints.
