This magnificent chess set is based on the characters portrayed in the original story "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" written in 1899 by L Frank Baum. The book's theme concerns the friendship, co-operation and trust shown to each other by a most unlikely group of individuals who meet on their journey through life.

This beautifully designed chess set features not only all the principal characters from the book but also some of the lesser known personalities. This set truly captures the magic of the greatest fairy tale to originate in the USA.
