My favorite evolution stuff 2. Charles Darwin Tobacco Card

In honor of Charlie D. I am posting one of my favorite Darwin items.  I got this from Ebay years ago.  It is a Darwin card - about 3 x 5 cm.  From Ogden's Cigarettes, much like baseball cards.
Also see my previous "Favorite Darwin thing" - a post card from 1900 or so.

  1. Dr. Eisen,

    That is so cool that you can find Chas. Darwin memorabelia. I think it would be really special to find a Darwin autographed calling card. A Darin fan and microbiologist, I started a blog about Darwin and evolution @ http://armchairdarwin.blogspot.com/
