John Wayne Chess Set
by The Beast!
(Boardgame Beast HQ)
If The Duke is your idea of a REAL man, then you’ll be surprised to discover that he was actually quite a thinker. In fact, so much so that in his will he stated, “Please immortalize me on a Chess set.” (Actually what happened was, his heirs sold his image rights to the highest bidder, but work with me here.)
You too can own a piece — in fact, 32 pieces — of Wayne memorabilia by purchasing this detailed, and highly dubious, Chess set.
The Bradford Exchange works like a subscription. You buy each piece as it’s issued and it forms a collection/Chess set. Buying a set for somebody who’s really into Western movies would be a great way to permanently get into their good books! Nicely detailed, including a table with watercolor-style images of The Duke emblazoned on the size.
