Well, I learned something new here. I did not know that Fischer and Spassky, in 1972, played using a chess set with a King height of 3.5". And I was surprised to learn that.
Not that I was necessarily expecting them to have used a set with a 3.75" King or the metric near-equivalent (say the current FIDE standard of 95 mm). Instead, what wouldn't have surprised me would have been if they were using a set with a 5" King, or thereabouts, something too large to be acceptable for tournaments today.
Just after posting this, I learned that Fischer and Spassky did play each other, at least for one game, with a set with a 5" King - not at Reykjavik, but during one of the Piatigorsky Cup tournaments, the set being a Herman Steiner set.
Ah, two games, one lost by Fischer in the 8th round, and one drawn in the 17th round, in the 1966 Second Piatigorsky Cup in Santa Monica.
It all true as the ower of both JOL and HOS sets 15 total, I find that you get
what you pay for in craftsmanship. As I said inthe above post just cahanged my login don't worry, the JOL set ill cost a little more but the waite customes clearence about 30 days is worth it. Now if you don't wont to waite go with HOS.
