Description from the seller

An authentic, complete vintage briefcase-style travel Backgammon set produced by the renowned German game publisher Schmidt Spiele in the late 1970s or early 1980s.
This highly portable executive edition weighs exactly 800 grams and measures a compact 27x19 cm when closed, making it the perfect historical travel companion or display piece. The exterior features a beautifully padded, textured rich brown faux-leather finish with a built-in carrying handle and functional brass-toned metal clasps. Inside, the playing board is lined with a classic dark brown felt, accented by alternating cream and dark points.
The set is 100% complete with all its original components: 15 Cream-white checkers & 15 Dark brown checkers 2 Original stitched brown faux-leather dice cups with iconic white diagonal stripes 4 Standard playing dice (2 cream, 2 dark) 1 Vintage doubling cube
Condition Report:
The set is in remarkable vintage condition for its age. The interior felt is clean, bright, and free of stains. The checkers and dice show minimal signs of play. The outer casing is structurally sound; the handle and metal hardware are fully operational with minor, age-appropriate vintage patina on the brass surfaces. Please review the high-resolution photos carefully as they form an integral part of this description.
