Borstendorf Chess Makers

Information on Borstendorf.de web pages shows that 3 main chess makers were at work in the town from the later 1800's. Ernst Wittig (1871), KP Uhlig (1872) and Louis Arnold (1889). There were also a number of smaller independent makers. Much research has been focussed on Uhlig because of the availability of illustrated catalogue information. It will be interesting to see if other documentary information comes to light to see what styles of chessmen were produced by the other makers. It is understood a booklet on Erzgebirge chess makers was produced by CCI to co-incide with the Dresden meeting and this may shed a little more light on the subject.

Early American Staunton Sets

Current wisdom has Drueke being the first American manufacturer of chess sets from 1914. There is clear evidence that Staunton Pattern chessmen were being made in North America pre-1900 and possibly as early as 1860. Images of sets in collections along with documentary evidence is shown in this album. It is not currently possible to tie a maker to a particular set of pieces.

	"Again, I beliece these are American. Maybe others do know more about these sets?" Joost
	"Hello Mick These chess sets seem to be made in USA, because almost always they are sold there. So, although there are some similarities with the German Uhlig sets, I do think these are American. Unfortunately I do not know the maker of these sets. These sets are not that rare, they pop-up regularly at ebay." Joost
