Product Description
Key Features The story of Peter Rabbit first appeared in a picture letter that Beatrix Potter wrote to Noel Moore, the young son of her former governess, in 1893. Encouraged by her success in having some greetings card designs published, Beatrix remembered the letter seven years later and expanded it into a little picture book with black and white illustrations. After being rejected several times, it was finally published by Frederick Warne in 1902. The Tale of Peter Rabbits pacy story, engaging hero and happy ending have made it a childrens classic whos appeal is timeless. Illustrated Board fully foldable. King Height is 3 34 or 95mm. SAC was established in 1969 to manufacture and distribute traditional adult games with the main emphasis on chess sets. The attention to details on their products is second to none. Every piece is hand made, and hand finished. With each and every product SAC ensures it keeps its reputation as being the worlds foremost manufacturer of high quality, decorative chess pieces, the definitive standard by which all others are measured. SAC chess pieces are highly sought after in the collectors market. With the fact, that each of these highly sought after pieces is hand made, means volume production is out of the question. Many of the earlier sets made by SAC are fetching high prices at auction. The sets are avidly collected the world over by chess enthusiasts. All SAC chess pieces are manufactured from a ground stone or polystone resin, and are poured into moulds made from the original hand crafted sculptures. The plain sets (brown and cream) are then stained and polished to bring out the full detail. The hand decorated and hand painted sets are fully detailed to ensure accuracy.
