Those christmas packs are strange, I bought one that was a 58, because it had a high number on the back. Back then it was only about as much as the cards inside would be if they were all commons.
Of the newer "cellos", I think the ones with the modern cards might be from a small repacker, as the cardboard top looks like it was printed by a print shop.
The others really do look like they were just done on a computer printer.
One of the flea markets I went to used to have a dealer that would repack commons and the occasional minor star into "packs" mostly using the larger team set penny sleeves that had a resealable tab. He made his own header cards, which were always on the back and not good enough to fool anyone. Always a minor star or red sox card on top, and the rest commons.
