Value of damaged Tobacco cards

I am relatively new the forum, and thought I would post a question to see what some of the guys think here. My question is this....What value do damaged tobacco cards have if any. I'm mainly concerned with back damage. There is a woman who owns an antique shop near where I live. she has sojme t212 Obak cards that are in an album. One of the cards is a Buck Weaver card, and I have been debating on what to offer her for the whole lot of cards that are glue ito it. Some cards are T212's, some are T205's, and there are 5 T206 southern league players. Do these cards have any value in the album or if they are removed ? I've done successful removal many tiimes in the past without damage, but this album looks like it will be a challenge. should I even bother making the woman an offer ?
