1967 Primrose Superman trading cards were styled like tobacco cards and sold in packs of Superman branded candy cigarettes in the UK and Canada.
There is some inconsistency with the dates for this set. The copyright date printed on the cards is 1967 but the boxes list 1966 as the copyright and grading companies often list the set as a 1968 release. Collectors seeking a complete collection should know that all three of these dates belong to the same set but any sets listed in the 1970s — 1972 specifically — are reprints on thin paper instead of card stock and should be considered a separate collectible.
The checklist includes 50 cards. Card fronts are textless illustrations with a simple border and card backs tell the story that inspired the card fronts.
