Happy #NationalCoffeeDay! Here is a German coffee trade card from about 1901.

@rootshaws A bit ago I posted what I intended as a humorous take on Newton's love life. However, this thread has me curious to research the original letters and learn more.

This one was on my want list for a long time, but I finally picked it up thanks to a seller in France. From 1960s "Les Bienfaiteurs de l'Humanité" series by Chocolat Coop. (Any more precise info on date of issue is appreciated.)

Am back after a long holiday. I have three vintage Newton cards for sale this week on the Bay. Enjoy!

In honor of #NationalMacAndCheeseDay here is Newton's 1960 Honigs Macaroni trade card. This guy was always using his noodle!

Sir Isaac Newton
Was so highfalutin
That the ladies of Trinity
All said, "Keep your virginity!"

#WorldCup semifinals feature by far the two top countries for Isaac Newton cards, #ENG and #FRA in that order. While #BEL scored twice in the 1960s with these issues from Chocolat Jacques, #CRO has none. This suggests ENG over FRA in the final, BEL over CRO for 3rd. Count on it.

I hope everyone enjoyed #NationalMacaroniDay! And yes, there is definitely an Isaac Newton card for that.

@NewLeibniz Still happens.
