lopacki Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 I purchased a plastic bag like this a few weeks ago and as soon as it arrived I could clearly see that the paper label was new and the whole thing was a rip off, the marbles inside were trash. As they say buyer beware. All my best ...... Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Oregon Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 There are all kinds of indicators with fake/fantasy bags but one of the primary ones is that the old headers were usually two-color headers (meaning one color ink on a colored header paper), not the multicolor headers like on the one Galen showed. Multicolor printing back in the 50's and 60's was expensive. Pepsi was one of the first ones to have the muticolor header. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
