Football Chess Set History:
Back in 1993 renowned artist Richard Taylor decided to create a unique, highly detailed custom football chess set. By the middle of 1993 the original sculptures were completed, production molds made and two sets were cast in bronze for test marketing. The two sets were well received upon their release. There were many articles written about the high quality of the Football Chess Sets and one set was even exhibited in the Museum of Miniatures in Los Angeles for a period of three months. In December of 1993 a full page advertisement was placed in Chicago Sports Profiles magazine along with a product placement in a local Chicago sports cable program. Although there was overwhelming interest in this one of a kind chess set for over six months during the test marketing throughout the USA..Only one set was ever sold! After spending tens of thousands of dollars in originals and test marketing, the Football Chess Set marketing campaign was canceled.
We are now offering the first set ever made (out of two sets).
This one of a kind offer includes:
- Complete Football Chess Set (as shown) one side is 24k gold plated and
the other is silver plated.
- Because this set will never be created again, we are also including
several production molds and waxes that will be mounted in a sealed box for
wall display (aprox. size 18" x 18")
- We are also including several of the original sculptures that will also
be enclosed in a sealed box for wall display (aprox. size 18" x 18")
- We are also including the 1993 Chicago Sports Profile magazine that
includes the original advertisement.
This is truly a great chance to collect a unique piece of American art from an internationally renowned artist with full documentation from original sculptures, to production molds to marketing campaign.
