- — William Weasley on Albus Dumbledore's opinion of his Chocolate Frog Card.[src]
Albus Dumbledore is portrayed on one of many Chocolate Frog Cards. This Chocolate Frog Card listed some of his accomplishments, including his duel with Gellert Grindelwald, his discovery of the uses of dragon's blood, and his alchemical work. This Chocolate Frog Card would serve as a instrumental source of information to assist Harry Potter in his discovery of Voldemort's plot to steal the Philosopher's Stone.
History
On 1 September, 1991, Harry Potter purchased a large quantity of wizarding sweets from the Honeydukes Express during his first trip on the Hogwarts Express, including some Chocolate Frogs. Upon opening his first one, he discovered Dumbledore's card. This would serve as his first introduction to two things: the concept of moving portraits in the wizarding world and the identity of Dumbledore himself, who would soon become his headmaster and a close friend.[1]
Later that school year, Harry and his friends Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger searched feverishly for the identity of Nicolas Flamel, who they knew from an unintentional tip from Rubeus Hagrid was connected to the mysterious package that had been transported from Gringotts Wizarding Bank to Hogwarts Castle. Harry was certain he had read the name somewhere, but could not recall where. As the trio were beginning to give up hope, Harry gave a Chocolate Frog to Neville Longbottom to console him after he had the Leg-Locker Curse cast on him by Draco Malfoy. The card happened to be Dumbledore's. After looking at it again, Harry realised that Flamel's name was on the card as a partner of Dumbledore's in alchemy. This caused Hermione to make the connection that Flamel was the creator of the Philosopher's Stone.[2]
During the British Ministry of Magic's attempt to discredit Dumbledore in 1995, William Weasley noted that Dumbledore joked that he didn't care how many of his titles and accolades he lost as long as his Chocolate Frog Cards continued to be made.[3]
