Here's my portable chess and chess wallet.
Wallet is antiquarian, made of cardboard. It was produced during 1950's.

Nice antique. Come to think of I was made before the 1950's.

Here is the chess set, cover with dust, broken prehistorical mobile phones, dirty cognac glass I had used for red wine etc. I obviously did not use the board for ages, but I plan to return to the OTB chess in autumn.

This is the same, but a 3,7% different angle like in William Wyler's film.

I can recall Junior Championshim of Serbia in summer 1980.
At the time it was still possible to adjourn the games, so I had a chance to have some moves sealed in the envelopes...

You may have heard about the film "The Englishman Who Went Up a Hill But Came Down a Mountain". The story you can read up. There is a meachnic working at the car of the Englishmen and is actually sabotaging it. He claims to need a special part. which is "what's it's name" on walisian...
