Winnie
the Pooh Chess Set (Un-decorated)
WP003
Based
on the characters created by A.A. Milne and beautifully
illustrated by E.H. Shepard, SAC’s designers have recreated
the wonderful world of Winnie the Pooh for chess lovers young and
old. Translated into almost every known language, Winnie the Pooh
and his friends have universal appeal.
In
1966 Walt Disney brought the stories to film and in 1977 the first
feature length animated film of Pooh, ‘The Many Adventures
of Winnie the Pooh’, was released. All the main characters
from the stories are represented in this set from Winnie the Pooh,
Kanga and Owl to Tigger, Eeyore and Piglet.
SAC
has represented the King by Winnie the Pooh himself and the queen
by Kanga, the sweet caring mother of baby Roo. The owl, supposedly
the wisest creature in 100 Acre Wood, is the bishop and Eeyore,
the gloomy grey donkey, is the knight. Tigger the bouncy is the
Rook and Piglet, Pooh’s best friend, is the pawn. This
beautiful chess set appeals to all ages and comes complete with an
illustrated board and a full set of rules.
