In a radio interview, Bobby Fischer stated, \"This (1950 Dubrovnik chess set) is the best chess set I have ever played on, it is marvellous.\" Interestingly there seemed to be some thief who loved this chess set even more than Bobby Fisher and Bobby Fishers original chess set was stolen. On Bobby Fishers special request a chess collector provided this chess set for the 1992 Fischer–Spassky rematch held at Sveti Stefan.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1950 Dubrovnik chess set\u003c\/strong\u003e was first seen in the \u003cstrong\u003e9th Chess Olympiad\u003c\/strong\u003e organized by the \u003cstrong\u003eFIDE\u003c\/strong\u003e and the \u003cstrong\u003egovernment of Yugoslavia\u003c\/strong\u003e.

This Olympiad had 84 chess players representing 16 nations who played a total of 480 games. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis chess set was designed without any religious symbols, without the king crown or bishop mitres.The pieces were designed for play and had wide bases and the pieces required a chess board with minimum 55 mm squares. They were green felted but were non weighted. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eApproximately 50 chess sets were made, so the original sets are extremely rare and expensive to buy for chess collectors. Chessbazaar presents the reproduction 1950 Dubrovnik chess set where we have made this wonderful chess set available to chess lovers at most affordable prices.
