Winchester Shot

I recently obtained two bags of unopened #8 Winchester shot. The bags are original packaging canvas bags in great shape, and one of the bags has a Bass Pro Shops price tag of $18.49! I plan on using the shot to reload, but I am keeping the bags for posterity. I wonder how old they are, since I cannot recall ever seeing lead shot less than $30.00 for a 25-pound bag.
