Mark,

One place to find that photo is on pg 13 of "The Motown Story' @ 1981, 1982, 1983 Orbis Publishing Ltd. First published in Great Britain by Orbis Publishing Limited, London 1985.
Editors: Ashley Brown & Michael Heatley
The caption beneath the photo merely states: " The array of Motown stars in a typical Sixties package tour". It then identifies groups [[not members) and Stevie Wonder by color of clothing worn.
Of course the yellow Tamla-Motown banner is a dead give-away, and one can see Earl Van Dyke in the back left corner behind the Temptations.

Thanks very much for your comments & information.

I am very interested in this period when the Tamla Motown label was first set up in the U.K. But somehow I missed this picture up to now.

I don't think it was taken at the T.V. studios as the Supremes outfits are different.

For the T.V. special the Supremes wore those fantastic red fringed dresses [[see below). So I am guessing that this photo may have been taken at some other location.

Thanks again.

Life sure is funny! The front cover of the book in question includes a pose in those dresses!
There the placement is Mary, Diana, Florence.
