AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Original Chess and checkers set with pieces inspired by the art of bullfighting, including figures from all the stages of a bullfight: alguacilillos, rejoneadores, a picador, banderilleros, foot soldiers and bullfighters. It also includes a checkers game with beautiful bullfighting illustrations depicting various bullfighting performances and their names. Everything is made of metal. It is all in very good condition, with nothing broken and only slight signs of age, as you can see in the photos, which I kindly ask you to examine carefully.
Although the explanatory cards appear in the photos, I no longer have them, so this lot will be sent without cards. They appear in the photos because this listing was copied from another exactly identical lot that was auctioned previously.
Board/case measurements
32x29x4cm
Measurements of some pieces for reference
-Bull 4.5x3 cm
-Tallest piece, horse 5.6 cm
-Checkers 2.7 cm in diameter and 0.7 cm high
This lot will be properly packaged and shipped insured with a tracking number. It can also be collected in Marchena, Seville, Spain
