The House of Staunton now offers our New Liberty Series chessmen, an adaptation of a popular American design first advertised in 1941. These sets were used in most major chess clubs throughout the States until around 1960 and were the set of choice for many major tournaments held in the U.S. during that period. The pieces feature a very robust design with thick collars and no delicate frills to chip or break during hard usage. So confident were the manufacturers of the indestructibility of their new design that they unconditionally guaranteed each piece for life! With the advent of Blitz and Bughouse, we're not so adventurous, although this is unquestionably the best set of chessmen for blitz play you can buy! The pieces are available in a natural and black lacquered finish for improved durability. A polished boxwood and rosewood version is also available. The set is housed in a genuine black (or burgundy for the rosewood set) lined and cushioned leatherette case.
