Description from the seller
Dalí chess and Javier Mariscal chess, designer of Cobi, the official mascot of the 1982 World Cup in Barcelona, in this chess represented by the horses.
- Dalí chess: With all its pieces in perfect condition, nothing broken and barely any signs of aging, it comes with explanatory cards about the origin and meaning of each piece.
The board is the original board from Javier Mariscal's chess and is completely new, still plastic-wrapped, although as can be seen in photos 91 and 92 it has a small, barely noticeable bump; overall it is in good condition with hardly any signs of use, as shown in the photographs that are part of the description and which I ask you to view carefully.
All the pieces represented in the Dalí chess have an explanatory card of the work represented by Salvador Dalí.
This chess set was issued by the Dalí Foundation in 2004, to commemorate the first centenary of Salvador Dalí's birth (1904–1989).
