Description from the seller
Original British Airways Concorde Vintage Leather Travel Game Set – 1980s Vintage ‘80
For aviation history collectors and luxury memorabilia enthusiasts, I offer an exclusive and complete travel game set (Bridge Set) original to the British Airways Concorde, dating from the inauguration flights of the early ’80s and distributed as a courtesy token to fidelity/passenger privileges of the famous aircraft.
An exceptionally preserved lot, complete with all its original era accessories, increasingly rare to find in this overall condition.
Composition and Details of the Set:
• 2 original blue leather travel cases: both feature a press-stud closure and the official gold monogram “C Concorde” printed on the front.
• Deck with gray/silver back: still fully sealed in the original factory-protective film, never opened.
Second deck: opened but in excellent overall condition, cards clean and ready for use/display.
• Deck with gold back and coordinated finishes: includes the deck and the related British Airways Concorde original cardboard boxes.
Included accessories:
Card-sized score markers from the era with Bridge rules/scorekeeping.
Travel pencils with original gold finish from the period, tucked into the appropriate internal straps.
Condition:
External cases: both containers are in excellent, like-new condition, with sturdy stitching, perfectly snapping clasps, and intact and bright front logo gilding.
Decks and cards: the sealed deck is pristine. The opened deck is complete and well preserved. As is physiological and typical for paper materials and special-edition items with metallized inks over 40 years old, you may notice minimal and natural color variations/age toning between the gold and blue pigments on some cards and parts of the packaging (tending toward slight greenish hues) and small imperfections and signs of time (slight nicks to the cardboard), perfectly consistent with the age and originality of the piece.
