The front seats shown are for 1956-64 Beetles.
The rear seat backrest is Pre '55, the hinge is the tell-tale sign |

Okay
Front seats are from a oval or later
And the back seat pre 55. Thats a blue plastic cover on the back seat.
Here two other photos of the back seat.
Is this worth to buy

I agree, the rear seat back looks like 51/52) fabric to me, but the rear seat base and front seats are from 2 different cars both around early 60's, not even oval. The fronts maybe 59-60'ish, but the rear base is a couple of years later. We have some Swedish interior misc seats in all those 3 fabrics. If you want split, I would buy the rear seat back but not the others!
Really you need any pre55 seats to fit your split.
