Open or not? Thank you!

I would guess it is since the marbles look like JABOs and foreign Cat's Eyes but I would try to get confirmation from @Al Oregon to be sure.

The first reaction is that this is a fantasy bag.  It is not made by a marble company or a known producer of bags (like Pressman or Penny King, etc.).  It is newer.  It does not have a certain type of marble or marbles made by a certain company.  It does not have the vertical plastic seam on the bag.  In the past, I have used the "fantasy" bag term mainly for those bags that were made to fool people into thinking they were older bags and, thus, more valuable.  I don't think this was made to fool people necessarily (just a gut feeling).  Other bags that I think similarly about are the Shur Shooter, Arcade, Bogart Classics, Astro Cat Eyes, etc.  That being said, I think most knowledgeable collectors would say that it fits in the "fantasy" bag category.
