To get a feeling of it, here's a video of the first F1 seasons (actually the video begins with a different race, the Mille Miglia). Then you see the 1950 Silverstone (the first ever F1 World Championship race) and the 1950 Monaco. A part is missing from here, and it continues with the 1951 Nürbugring race (German GP), the Italian GP, and Pedralbes (Spanish GP).

Although a little different from today. For example, for many decades, there were also some F1 races held that didn't count in the World Championship.
