'[theory11](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/film-awardsinspired-playing-cards)' has collaborated with [The Beatles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-beatles-collection) to release [premium playing cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uno-harry-potter) that take inspiration from 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band,' as well as other references from their discography.

The jackets of the cards match the jackets worn by each member on the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. 'All You Need is Love' is quoted, and the members' figures from the cover of their movie 'Help!' can be seen on the card back designs. Each member is depicted as the king of one of the four suits, and fans can try to make out the references to other songs on the faces of the cards like 'Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds,' 'Eleanor Rigby,' 'Blackbird,' and 'I Am The Walrus,' to name a few.

The decks come individually or, for the collectors, The Beatles Box Set Special Edition is available on the theory11 website.
