Soviet chessmen set 1960s.
Vintage wooden chess pieces USSR.
Old model of Queens Gambit chess set and 1960s popular model of classic Mordovian chess pieces.
I can say another way, that the classic Mordovian ASSR 1950s chess figures over the years became more and more primitive, until they took their final form close to chess shown in the film Queen's Gambit. This is the 1960s model. Mordovian chessmen were taken as exemplar by other manufacturers for their production in the 1960s-1970s. The main difference between the classic Mordovian chess pieces and the 1960s-1980s models displayed most of all in the form of a knight. This set has its own style chess knight.
! Chess pieces only, the chess table used just as background.
Height of the king is 91 mm., base is 35 mm.
Height of the pawn is 42 mm.
Damages: old condition, chipped finials of the kings, white rook have no felt.
