This classic old favorite set is based on the characters from L. Frank Baum's 1900 publication of 'The Wonderful Wizard of Oz'.
"There's a cyclone coming!" Uncle Henry shouts. But it is too late for his niece. Snatched away from her home in Kansas, Dorothy finds herself in the land of Oz. There she meets a Scarecrow, a Tin Woodman, and a Lion, and together they set off down the yellow brick road to seek the Wizard of Oz. For nearly 100 years, children have been entranced by the wonderful world of Oz which inspired us to make this set
This is now an end of range set comprising 32 3" tall pieces.
The Characters are:
King/Wizard, Queen/Dorothy,Bishop/Scarecrow, Knight/Tinman, Rook/Cowardly Lion and the Pawn/Toto.

all of our Limited Edition Chess Sets:It is most relevant to point out that our Limited Edition products are not made using a mass-production technique utilizing inexpensive latex molds as many others are. Every one of our pieces have been made individually by the hand of our sculptor using a different process [more consistent with pewter sets]. This process shows up much more intricate carving detail and imperfections where they exist! Latex molds have a tendency of 'smoothing out' some of the detail in the carving, particularly because they can swell slightly in the curing process. For example, even a thumbprint would show up using our technique and we believe capturing the entire carving art is so very important!This detail difference may not be too obvious from a web page comparison. As a result there are slight differences between the sets of the same type in terms of coloration and detail.
