I am new to this board, and i can tell you for a fact, that is a original sealed kit.
The cello on re-seals would not be placed on the sides of the box (as in the 2nd picture on the auction)
I can show you my original 68 sealed kits and they are of the same nature, some a little rougher than others if exposed to heat and or handled 150 times..
Randy, may the highest bidder win - Aj
