Chicago/San Francisco/ New York City skyline chess sets
The Chicago Bears and San Francisco 49ers will line up across from each other on Thursday night. You and your Chablis drinking friends can have the same thrill with this custom $1750 chess set that replicates the city skylines.
Handcrafted in Maple and Zebra woods, the "Tale of Two Cities Chess Set" features Chicago and San Francisco's iconic architecture interpreted artist Steve Vigar.

Each city is fronted by a line of "pawns", representing the distinct residential architecture unique to each town.
