Does anyone else think this card is a reprint? The front looks didn't make me do a double take, but the printing on the back looks too fuzzy, it seems too white (and artificially stained to tone it down some), and there is a scuff above the 'Mecca Cigarettes' in a place where perhaps it said 'reprint. I had an original one up for auction recently, and just happened across this, and am kind of upset that it is almost as high as what mine went for ($200). And mine didn't have any tea stains. Any thoughts?

By the way, I suggest never drinking tea over a vintage card--you might spill some and your card will end up becoming a reprint.
