History
[edit]Top Trumps was a card game popular with adults and children in the United Kingdom in the 1970s and 1980s, especially amongst boys, for whom it was a popular playground pastime. The topics tended to reflect this. The original Top Trumps were launched in early 1976[citation needed] published by a company named Dubreq. Dubreq was taken over by Waddingtons in 1982, and they continued manufacturing packs until the early 1990s. The packs from this period are now collectible.[1] In 1999 the rights to the game were purchased by Winning Moves UK, who relaunched the game.
