Alan just finished some repairs and replacement pieces for me, too. Absolutely superb work.

Got a couple pawns being produced now. Really looking forward to seeing them arrive in the mail.

Fantastic, I will ditto the double exclam, on sets and repairs. Top notch, guys. Thanks for sharing.

Received my pawns for my Soviet set from Alan Dewey a while ago but I've been so busy lately, I never got around to posting pics. Here's the set.

Alan made three pawns from the Black army. Here's the army.

Of course if you stare at them you will see which ones are replacements. But I use the set all the time and never notice. They fit right in. Thanks Alan!

Thanks UP for sharing some pics of your fantastic vintage Soviet set with Alan's black replacement pawns,  which look great.
