Shifter boot for sm420s

Am I correct into thinking there was no boot that was OEM? I know there is a insulator pad between the transmission and trans hump, but did the factory place a boot on top on 64s? If not what year did they start?
Thanks,

Steve

Think I just answered my own question, found this pic of 63 GMC

Yep. My dad's '63 never had a boot. Being as that's what I grew up with, I thought boots kind of looked odd when I first started seeing them!
