| Mrs G and I popped along to an antique toy and game exhibition a while ago and saw some of the original chess pieces. I took photos, being the sad get that I am. Did you get to Uig when you were in Lewis? There's a massive carved replica on the way to the beach: http://www.ceuig.com/uig-chessmen The following will be of no use whatsoever, but still: I was gutted a few years back. On my way into work I passed a charity shop with a full, replica (obviously) Lewis chess set for about £15. As it was closed, I thought I'd try later. It had, as you'd guess, gone. BAH! Alternatively: http://www.britishmuseumshopon[...]lid=CKK2i9a-7aICFUcA4woddz3ofg £275????????!??!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!? Keep it. ;) G x Reply | with quote |  15th July 2010ce 12:13 In reply to: Re: Tony Robinson's Top 10 Scottish 'Treasures' (faerygirl)2 replies: Re: Tony Robinson's Top 10 Scottish 'Treasures' (juamei) Re: Tony Robinson's Top 10 Scottish 'Treasures' (Littlestone) |
