Are these real?

I picked these up for 25 bucks at thrift store in town, I know next to nothing about original packaging. The marbles inside seemed liked Ravenswood and I thought everything looked the way it should. 

I read some past posts about fantasy bags, and just how the packaging looks old with newer marbles inside, just want to see if I overpayed or it is actually the original packaging. Sorry about the photos, hard to get a good photo through the plastic.

 Thanks for all of you knowledge that is shared in advance.

I remember Ron Sheperd mentioned that seam on the backside of the cello was a good sign for vintage in one of those Stephen Bahr youtubes. 

 

Very early in this video. Nice bags!

I can’t comment on value.  Congrats on your acquisition!

I had a long bag a while ago . Everything looks correct imo.

Great grab!

the black swirls can you try to get a closeup ?

I have several that I've been trying to confirm as RWs

Thanks
