Item Details

Description

I purchased this chess set at a yard sale this past weekend. The woman I bought it from said her parents had purchased it in Germany many years ago. The pieces are big - the king is about 5 inches, I'd say - and they have a nice heft/substantial feel to them. Shiny deep red and yellowish colors. I believe they're bakelite. The set is complete with case and board, and is in excellent condition, with the exception of a chip on one of the castles. I would like to know more about the set (I can't find ine like it online) and a truer value than what I paid. Thanks!Thanksgivings
