Best Set of Liebig 1884 Gold, 1883
File — Box: CFC Trade Cards Box 1
Identifier: CFC2021.0045.1-6
Abstract
This may be our best preserved set of Liebig's first fable set. Albert has them listed as from 1883. I think the usual date given is 1884. Now I am tempted to invest in an English language set available on Ebay. The collector's urge is hard to repress!

Suchard Series 116 Landscape Cards, 1905
File — Box: CFC Chocolate and Chicoree Cards Box 1
Identifier: CFC2018.0272.1.1-13
Abstract
These small landscape-formatted cards offer beautiful colored pictures of human scenes exemplifying animal fables. The picture-side includes "Chocolat Suchard," a number up to 12, and a title. The verso, sometimes showing a glue-tear, comes in four different patterns. In each of the patterns, a title and excerpts from the fable occur beneath an elaborate monocolor floral or animal background, "Neuchatel, Suisse," and mention of London, Paris, and New York offices. The addresses are the same...

Suchard Series 249 Portrait Cards, 1980
File — Box: CFC Chocolate and Chicoree Cards Box 1
Identifier: CFC2018.0272.3.1-12
Abstract
Some of these cards still have the feel that the powder with which they came is still on them. Strong colors and simple forms mark these cards, which are quite different from the more traditional Suchard landscape cards. The identifying numbers between "1" and "12" can be hard to find but they are there in the corner of the image segment.
