I am very happy to see the historical chess items being preserved!

Yowza… there goes my weekend! I suppose in the long run, all your hard work will save us all a lot of time. Thank you for putting in the effort to classify, photograph and document!

Wonderful sets

I like the way you have set up using mouse hover – makes it easy to navigate.
Excellent photos.
Well identified.
You have a wide varied collection – antique to repro – and all types of material.

A suggestion – I would have found it easier to take in your great collection if there had been groupings.

You have a Jaques green sarcophagus – your date may be early. I’ve been aspirational to acquire but given up on.

I will go through your site again but slower and read the blog articles.
From a fellow collector in England.

Dear Shane,
congratulations on your website and your fine collection. I will be a frequent visitor and am already looking forward to new additions.
All the best,
Holger

To my fellow collecting enthusiast and archaeologist, it is my sincere pleasure to wish you nothing but success on your journey in the world of Chess. Seek always honesty and fairness in your pursuits and may Caïssa continue to smile and guide you in pursuit of truth and knowledge!

Only through the intro so far, but that alone had me hooked. Made me smile as you hit the nail on the head regarding the collecting bug.
Well done!

Wonderful collection and very well laid-out site, congratulations. I thoroughly enjoyed browsing through your collection. I will revisit when I have more time, thank you

Thank you for signing the guestbook, hope you like the site!
