Bought MI off ebay. Are these original disks and manuals?

I bought a copy of both MI and MI2 off of ebay. The boxes seem to be original, but the manual for the first MI looks photocopied, and the disks are black color, with black & white labels. Can someone help me out? If these things aren't original, I'm going to put a negative for the ebay seller!

 

Monkey Island 1 BOX

Monkey Island 1 BOX LABEL - Label is not a regular stick-on label, the type is printed directly on the box.

Monkey Island 1 disks - All disks look like this, with B&W label, with black color HD disk.

Monkey Island 1 manual - Manual looks photocopied.

Monkey Island 2 disks - Some disks are black color, some greyish color. Which is the original? Are the black color disks replacement disks?

Monkey Island 2 manual - This looks like an original manual.

Yes, you have the budget edition of MI1, which is known for the weirdly white manual covers and generic-looking disk labels.

 

Your disks all look legit to me, but I suspect that some of them are indeed replacements or are otherwise from another package. The ones with the LucasArts golden guy logo would be the newer ones. The color of the disks would have nothing to do with it. Your games look great. :)
