The Collection of
Riccardo Andreis
Chess collector Riccardo Andreis has amassed an amazing
collection of chess images. While primarily focusing on his
philatelic interests, he also has quite a few images of old prints,
magazines, post cards, and photographs of famous chess players. Visit
his website
today to see all of this wonderful collection, and enjoy the links below
to some of them that he has allowed us to share with you here at
Chessville. Also see his
Chess Items Market (exchange or sale) and his
Want List. |
