Russian set


Saw this Russian set on eBay; judging from the pictures posted in the listing, the box was pretty tatty, but the board and pieces were in pretty good nick. And so it proved to be indeed.


The king and queen have their tops painted in the 'opposite' colour, which appears to be typical for eastern European chess sets.



The eBay listing didn't give any information on the age of the set, so if anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear!
