1968 Primrose Yellow Submarine trading cards are a tobacco style set released in packs of candy cigarettes. Each card in the 50 card set features a production still from the animated Beatles classic.
The cards are numbered but the numbering does not align with the chronology of the film. Raw cards from this collection are increasingly difficult to find in high quality and graded cards are often put up for auction at a pretty steep price point.
