STOCK - Gaming Items, Chess and Dominoes #01

WHIST BOX

This is a "white floral ware" Mauchline box with Whist written in black. The box is in very good condition although the catch has the usual little tab missing and one of the hinges is a little loose. Inside are two decks of fairly modern cards by the American card company, Hallmark. £20.00

A SET OF DOMINOES

This is a complete set of "double-six" bone and ?ebony? dominoes. The photo is of another set but this set is the same except that one has a small chip on a corner of bone - this doesn't really make a difference. They come packed in their own sliding top box which is of a traditional design and made with dovetails at each corner. Each domino has a brass spinner. PRICE: £30.00

A POCKET CHESS SET

This is a little chess set made by T.S.L. and housed in a cardboard box with a wooden board and plastic men. The box lid is split on one corner and there is a piece of its end missing but all the men stay in place when picked up. PRICE: £10.00

I also have several other sets of chessmen but no room to put photos. If you are interested in a set of good wooden men, please contact me for details and photos. They range from small to medium size and from £8.00 to £40.00.

NEAR PAIR OF BEZIQUE MARKERS

This is a nice little pair of Bezique score markers in wood. Both have a body in mahogany. The lighter of the two has a face in (I think) walnut with ebony stringing and satin-wood inserts; the darker has a face of rosewood with satin-wood inserts and, possibly, ebony stringing. At the top end of each is a swivel which, when opened, reveals two spaces for pegs - one red and one light coloured. The only difference between the two, besides their faces, is the swivel on one is metal and on the other is wood. PRICE: pair £20.00

CHESS SET - 3.5" KING

This chess set comes in a stained deal box with a hinged lid (one hinge broken). The set is complete as shown and in good condition except for one pawn who has a split up the base. Most of the pieces have felt covered papers on the bottom. PRICE: £15.00

POOLETTE

Seldom do I find a game in such great condition! This one was made in the 20's or 30's (or possibly the 50's) and consists of a wheel similar to a Roulette wheel, a board which holds the bank's 'money', a stake board, a couple of ball bearing and a box of counters (Emu, made in England). The game was made by R. Cox Products Ltd. of Worcester but there's nothing to say on the rules when it was made. The picture on the lid shows a very posh gentleman croupier. The box is made of tan cardboard with an applied label. PRICE: £40.00

PAIR OF PALL MALL WHIST MARKERS by GOODALL

This is a nice set of two whist markers - one in walnut with satin-wood pegs, the other in satin-wood with walnut pegs. Each has a small Goodall Pall Mall label on the front rather than the usual larger ones on the back. The little hinges used in the Goodall Whist counters were invented by a Scotsman called James Sandy for use with boxes but they work really well with this type of marker. All the hinges on these two are in perfect condition. PRICE: pair £ 30.00

CRIB BOARD "EXTRAORDINAIRE"!

This is a big (13.5" x 3.5") crib board covered in an ivory coloured material - which I believe is called 'ivorine' - and is in excellent condition. It's the ideal gift for someone who plays cribbage or collects similar items. It has a swivel opening at the end with two holes, in each of which are two pegs to use on the board. I believe it dates from around the 1930's but it could be from the '50's. PRICE: £45.00


STOCK - Gaming Items, Chess and Dominoes #09

THREE BOXES OF COUNTERS

There seem to be millions of counters in the world! Here are just three types. Each box has dozens - possibly hundreds - of counters. There are plastic counters in the little red box to the right, above are cardboard counters with the name "Gambo" and on the left is a box of bone counters (although there may be one or two plastic ones that have forced their way in!) The plastic counters are £3.00, The Gambo counters are £3.00 and the bone counters are £4.00. (BONE COUNTERS SOLD - ENQUIRE FOR OTHERS NOT BOXED)

As well as these I have loads of stained bone counters with 'old money' on, cowrie shells and any number of counters in the shape of 'men'. Do write with your needs.

CHAD VALLEY ROULETTE

This is a great Roulette set comprising a mat on which the betting takes place, a painted wood and metal roulette wheel with a little white glass (?) ball and a rule sheet. It all comes in a box with a "flip-top" lid and it's all in really great - possibly even unused - condition. PRICE: £20.00


STOCK - Gaming Items, Chess and Dominoes #11

SET OF FOUR LITTLE TRUMP MARKERS/COUNTERS

This is a small set of four counters representing the four suits and each with raised 'cards' on the front and a registration diamond for October 1881 on the back. They are each just a couple of centimeters across at the most - which is why it's such a poor photo!PRICE: £25.00

DOUBLE CARD CASE FOR THE WORSHIPFUL CO. OF MAKERS OF PLAYING CARDS

This leather-covered case which is made to hold two decks of cards was made around 1929 or possibly a little later. The stamped gold-tooling on the front is of two men in armour, one standing on each side of a shield which has the words CORDE RECTO ELATI OMNES on it. This picture and writing were produced when King George V recovered from an illness (the Latin writing means "Our King Restored To Us"). The case is in very good condition though there are two rubbed places on the inside of the fold-over lid. and a tiny pulling-away of the leather on the bottom of the case. The ribbons which aid the removal of the cards and the ribbon on the lid are still present and in good condition. PRICE: £18.00

TWO PUT'N'TAKES

These are both brass/bronze put'n'takes from early to mid-20th century. The darker one is the older, I think and is six-sided with the words written with letters with serifs. The lighter one is also six-sided but the words have sans serif lettering. Both have a milled 'handle'. PRICE: £12.00 EACH


STOCK - Gaming Items, Chess and Dominoes #14

A SET OF TWO WOODEN AND IVORY WHIST MARKERS

These two whist markers are by Goodall in their Camden range. These are particularly beautiful - the darker one is in ebony, the slightly lighter is in rosewood. Both have been made with ivory inserts which click up to indicate games won. They are both in lovely condition and each has a Goodall label on its back. PRICE: pair £45.00


STOCK - Gaming Items, Chess and Dominoes #15

TOTO DICER IN ORIGINAL BOX

For those who don't know the TotoDicer, it is a little 'box' with a window in one end. The window covers a compartment in which there are three little dice which are 'shaken' when one pulls (or pushes) the lever in the other end. This dicer is in good condition though with a little bit of rust on the metal surround of the window. The box is in great condition. PRICE: £10.00


STOCK - Gaming Items, Chess and Dominoes #16

TRAVELLING CHESS SET IN MAHOGANY CASE

This is a really nice little travelling chess set which, I believe, used to belong to Major JB Gordon (that name is written on the bottom and dated 22.6.1917 along with some sums.) There are four replacement pieces, two red pawns and two white pawns. The originals are in bone and stained bone - the replacements are plastic. The sliding lid to the box fits and locks into the back groove very well which stops the lid from coming out accidentally and stops the pieces falling out but it is missing the end piece which would aid the sliding of the lid. The varnish on the wood is a little scratched here and there but is in otherwise good condition. The playing surface is made of squares of mahogany and boxwood inset into a mahogany base. PRICE: £45.00

(Also available are complete sets of chess men in various materials and various sizes. Please email if you would like further details.)
