These seem to be trade card premiums for Platignum brand pens and were probably issued in the late 60's or early 70's.   I believe this set consists of eight cards based on the fact that the images on the cards appear to be based on the eight prehistoric animal models produced by Life-Like Hobby Kits and/or Lindberg brands.
