Hi All - first post so sorry if i am not following a certain protocol etc.
recently "refound" 30 1910 Obak t212 cards that i received ~15 years ago, along with the original cigarette pack.
Anybody knowledgeable on which cards I have would be considered the rarest? Or any additional info ! (imgur link below)
Thanks!

By the way - the artwork on these are amazing! can't believe how much detail they have in the backgrounds. Just wish my dad or great uncle took care of them a little better!

On the 1910s I’m not aware of any rarities with the front images. The backs can be tough. The 150 series backs are tougher than the 175s and carry a premium. Also there are a couple slogans which are tougher than others. But in general there are no stars or rarities in the series.

Thanks for the reply ! As you could see, some are in rather rough shape. What do you think a “ballpark” figure would be for these? Does the cigarette pack carry any value?

Based on the scans, and assuming the backs are clean, I'd say they're all on in the $20-50 range, depending on condition. There are 35 different backs in all. "Just Right", "Delicate Aromatic" and "Mais Paper Wrapper" are three of the hardest backs and may get a premium. There are a couple more I can't think of off the top of my head. The trimmed Hitt might sell for 10 bucks.
