Please see item condition below.
ITEM CONDITION
This game board set is in very good vintage condition. The bottom of the box is missing, so this listing includes only the box top and other components. The all four corners on the box top have split, as shown, and were taped together at one point. This could actually work to your advantage, as you can lay the box top completely flat and are able to see the sides - or, you could retape the corners to make the box top complete again. All the plastic chess pieces are included. The instructions state that you could pour plaster of Paris into the chess pieces to make them heavier - clever! The checker pieces are made of wood. All the black checker pieces are included, and all but one of the red checker pieces are there. There is an extra checker piece that hasn't been painted, and could be used for the missing red piece. There are two additional black checker pieces included - must be from another set. The original instructions are include and are in good condition. The folding chess / checker board is in very good condition, with only very minor scuff marks on it from the pieces being moved over it.
