Chess piece set

Description

FIG. 1 is a plan view of a chess piece set showing my new design.

FIG. 2 is a plan view showing a second embodiment thereof.

FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing one of the chess pieces of FIG. 1.

The essential concept common to the several views which depict the embodiments of the invention is the provision of markings in the form of spots and elongations in the arrangement common to the two figures. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the larger spots have a square configuration, while in FIG. 2 they are circular. The small spots on the pawns are circular in FIG. 1 and square in FIG. 2. Their dispositions are identical. Also, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the elongations are solid bars pointedly terminated at the far ends. In FIG. 2 the elongations are formed by circles in linear array, similarly terminated at the far ends, and otherwise identically disposed.
