These subscription cards were delivered to buyers in "decks" sent every week or few weeks. The buyer could then remit payment which would continue the subscription. These cards were never sold as a complete set or at retail, the only way to accumulate some of all of these cards was to subscribe in 1978. There are 64 decks (or packets) of cards with 24 cards in each packet for a total of 1,536 cards. The cards are all numbered on the back with a 5-digit pre-code which was the set code from Edito-Service, followed by the deck number and the card number:
13-067-dd-cc (13-067 = the Auto Rally set pre-code, dd= Deck number and cc= Card number).
