this extraordinary limited-edition looney tunes chess set was inspired by the glitz and glamour of hollywood of the 1930s, and is limited to only 50 sets, making it an extraordinary collectible. the chess sets are made from resin and marble and are hand-painted. Each set includes a total of 32 chess pieces, and the pieces range from approximately 4 inches to 6 inches tall. The board measures 28" x 28" x 7" and features a painting created by narina sokolov, a well-known feature-animation background painter. The chess board is set in a "floating frame" -- the board is set in a 2" deep frame so that when the pieces are positioned on the board, they seem to be floating above it. This is done so that the painting on the chess board can be viewed even when the pieces are on top. Designed by david kracov, an artist whose passion for film, special effects and animation developed into a career of sculpting characters for the country's most prominent movie studios and private collectors. first set king: director yosemite sam queen: carmen miranda bunny bishop: studio agent daffy knight: set designer road runner (standing with bag of quick-drying cement) rook: special effects artist marvin the martian pawns: hollywood signs second set: king: actor pepe le pew holding signed photo of himself to penelope queen: fan penelope standing on walk of fame star of pepe bishop: film editor taz (biting into a reel of film) knight: walk of shame wile e.
