An excellent example of the early Lasker set with earliest label and knight design for this type of Jaques chessmen.
Comes in original mahogany lift top box with green baize lined interior & Jaques paper trade label to lid.
The design of this set is known in the modern codex as the early “Lasker” . The practice of adding historic chess champions names to styles of Jaques chessmen is a modern practice which Jaques never used historically , although it is a great system to easily help identify specific Jaques Staunton Chessmen.
These are genuine antiques! Great to play and a good investment.
