New Wave Chess & Checkers
An inventive breakthrough in portable play. Laser-cuts in corrugated board hold flat game pieces with such tenacity they can't be shaken out. A piece has been inserted in the same place 1000 times without loss of the gripping function. At 3 ounces (including travel pouch), 8 3/4 inches square and US$12 it's the world's lightest, most tenacious and most inexpensive three-dimensional Chess & Checkers set.
