Jim,

I'm not sure what you mean by "blemishes" here, but those imperfections in
the actual paper can be very telling. If there are little holes in the paper
made by insects, those holes near the center (where the paper is bunched
onto the cake) will go through several layers of paper. This is a good way
to know that the cake had not been unwrapped and rewrapped. That begins to
suggest some level of authenticity. Perhaps you meant something else by
blemishes though. Just thoughts.
