  Depends what you mean by different compartments? The seal isn't as distinct as the 70's and early 80's, but there should be very thin seal line between the sections. If you want to post a scan, I can take a look at it.

  In the past you could purchase racks like that in bulk at a discount. There were called miswraps.

  All your money won't another minute buy.

  I have seen that in the past. Sometimes the seal between compartments was not the best and they separated. Not common but I have seen it before. I have seen some dealers use this kind of rack to make one with multiple stars showing and lightly heat the cello to create the compartments.

  That's a grocery rack, not a rack pack~it consists of 3 individually wrapped cello packs with gum in each pack.
