Auktionsspelet

Auktionsspelet ("The Auction Game") from Swedish publisher Aristospel is a WWII era game in which the players is given some money and then participates in an auction. The winner is the player with the most numbers of complete sets of bought items. The auction items is a deck of cards. The game also includes rules, money and a small, very handsome, auctioneer's gavel. All in a small box, that together with the old Aristospel logotype and the absence of expensive or complicated components, makes it fairly easy to date the game to the war years. Designer and artist is, sadly, not known.
