1963 Primrose Flintstones trading cards were released in Primrose Confectionery products throughout England. The complete set includes 50 cards but there are two different cardback designs so a completists may be looking for 100.
The color choices may seem at odds with the beloved cartoon. Wilma, a red head, is portrayed as blonde, Betty’s black hair is now brunette, and strangest of all, Barney can be seen with green hair. All that aside, it’s still a lovely set that fans of the show or collectors of tobacco style trading cards will enjoy.
