Obak fo'
The card you have is from the 1909 set. They call this back the "Old English" because of the style of print, and it is only seen on the 1909's, which are definitely harder to come by than the 1910 (175 series on back) or the 1911 cards. The 1910 cards with 150 series on the back are also harder to come by, and many of them offer subtle variations on the front from the 175 series.
Huggins and Scott's current auction has a real nice number of lots of all three years of Obaks...give them a look to get familiar with the differences.
Cool back on your card...the ad claims you can smoke them all day long with no after effects, unless of course you count double vision as an after effect.
