Bought these as a simple fun party game! My daycare kids love these more than i expected them to!

The checker set looks good on a bookshelf. The only thing this is lacking is a latch to lock it shut.

The chess board squares are sopose to be light and dark alternating squares. However, jaques's chinese oem supplier of this design steals the design and starts to put out 11, 15, 18 book styled folding chess sets.
