    # 13511839 - Vintage SSPCO Wooden Crate and Asian Chess Pieces $7.00 1 $7.00 HELLO!!! Chess set is ceramic or porcelain with nice felt bottoms. Hand painted? From? Made when? They are big 6 inches tall! They look Mongolian to me!? Any help appreciated! The box has nothing to do with them, but I like it just as much or more than chess pieces! SSPCO With lion and bird! 29 inches by 10 inches and 6 inches deep. Nice kind of dovetailing on ends and old clasp hooks to close! I have about 50 things to research so this I will do later! It would take one huge chess board to use these! They all look fierce! Even the Queen looks like she could kick my a__!!! haha, I do not know why I buy such goofy items! Help appreciated! Thanks for looking!!! Don
