Famous Wizards Card
From Hpwiki
These cards come inside Chocolate Frogs. They have the picture of a famous wizard on the front, with a short biography on the back. The first card Harry Potter ever got was one of Albus Dumbledore. It was this card that incidentally also mentioned Nicholas Flamel, and thus allowed Hermione to deduce the mystery of the Philosopher's Stone.
Cards mentioned in the books:
- Agrippa - a German mystic and alchemist
- Alberic Grunnion - made a ring of gold with a curse
- Albus Dumbledore - Greatest sorcerer of the present age
- Circe - sorceress who turned people into beasts
