A Collection of Vintage Games and Ephemera including a Travel Chess Set and Playing Cards

An assortment of vintage games and related postal ephemera. The lot features a folding wooden travel chess set, similar in style to soldier pocket games of the mid-20th century, with a green and natural wood board designed with peg holes to secure the pieces during play. The set is accompanied by a collection of gold-coloured peg-style chess pieces. Also included are multiple sets of playing cards: a twin-deck set housed in a red textured box containing decks with red scrollwork and a blue architectural illustration of The Daily Telegraph and Morning Post building; a single deck labelled as Linen Finish in a decorative grey slipcase; and a further deck displaying a traditional English village street scene illustration. Additionally, the lot includes a vintage brown cardboard postal lid from W. D. & H. O. Wills, Bristol, addressed to a Miss H. Thomas in Rastrick, Yorkshire, and bearing the printed code PB 170S.
