Ready for Battle

Rancho Bernardo, CA

This is my oldest chess set. Probably dating back to the 1950's. The white King has been slain, and one castle (rook) has lost its parapets. I doubt that I could pawn it off on anyone ;-)

1/125s f/2.8 at 100.0mm iso400 full exif

The parapets were always an un-necessary embellishment anyway.
