The 1965 Marhoefer Meats Review of Famous Racing Cars is one of a number of sets of Racing Cars and Indy Racing in particular that Marhoefer produced over the years. The cards are wildly popular with racing enthusiasts. The set is a (10) card unnumbered set with rounded corners. The fronts of the cards picture a subject car with the infomration and date and the tagline "Compliments of Marhoefer". The fronts, as with all the Marhoefer cards, are black and white. The backs of the cards have detailed information about the car, the engine on the car and what race the car won as well as a narrative of the outcome of the race.
As the Marhoefer Meats cards were generally inserted into packaging, finding high grade cards is unusual. This complete set of (10) cards is in pristine condition in an original glassine type sleeve as received intact from Marhoefer. The cards are in beautiful, nearly unimprovable condition. Finding "F" series meat cards in high grade is a daunting task and this set is no exception.
