I'm obviously in the minority about the use of STAMP but this is how it is defined (with some examples):
: a distinguishing or characteristic imprint, sign, or impression : MARK <a poet who has left her stamp upon her generation -- Sara H. Hay> <these works have the classic stamp upon them -- Laurence Binyon> <the very stamp of genius -- Alfred Kazin> <in its content and terminology the unmistakable stamp of the backwoods -- American Guide Series: Ind.> c : the lasting imprint or residual impression of something : EFFECT <sun and weather ... and the deeper stamp of his new life have made him physically a stranger -- Dixon Wecter> <the stamp of his character upon his style -- Arnold Isenberg> d : external appearance : physical cast or form <the English look gave way to a Celtic stamp on the features of the inhabitants -- Richard Joseph>

Comment: "I here your point re "stamp". For me, "mark" probably fits best with my use of words later. Thank you very much Patricia!"
