Description from the seller

An original ASS Quartet No. 634/1 “Top Class – International Cars” from the 1960s.

The quartet belongs to the classic German auto card sets of that era and combines game, technology, and automotive history. The cards depict significant historical vehicles from various racing and record categories and include technical data such as engine, power, and speed.

Particularly appealing is the thematic mix of:

Pioneers of automobile construction
Grand Prix vehicles
Hill climb cars
Racing cars
Record-breaking vehicles

Included are, among others, representations of vehicles such as:

Ferrari
Ford GT40
Auto-Union
Alfa Romeo
Bugatti
Mercedes-Benz
Vanwall
Maserati

Additionally, the quartet features the typical ASS title card with occupational information (“Berufstip Werkzeugmacher”) – a characteristic detail of many German quartet games from this era.

Contents:
32 playing cards
1 title/deck card

Original box/case is not present.

Overall condition: good to good-plus

Cards:
even age-related signs of wear
slight edge and corner wear
Printing overall well preserved

Note:
One card appears lighter in the photos – this is photographic/light-related and not fading. The aforementioned photo has therefore been included again in a larger size.
