THE LOST E S LOWE TOY COMPANY 1959 METAL PEWTER CHESS SET 32 PIECE RENAISSANCE THEME: IN THE BOOK “HISTORY OF THE E.S. LOWE TOY COMPANY AND THE CHESS SETS IT SOLD” BY THE LATE DUNCAN POHL, HE PONDERS “HOW MANY DIFFERENT STYLES AND SIZES OF CHESS SETS DID LOWE OFFER DURING THE COMPANY’S HISTORY? AND WHILE THE COMPANY PRIMARILY OFFERED PLASTIC CHESS SETS, IT ALSO SOLD SETS MADE OF BAKELITE AND WOOD. WERE ANY OTHER MATERIALS USED/OFFERED BY THE COMPANY?” WELL DUNCAN YOU GUEST RIGHT. E.S. LOWE TOY COMPANY MADE A PEWTER VERSION OF THE RENAISSANCE #832 AND HERE IT IS. THIS SET MAY BE A PROTOTYPE THAT NEVER WENT INTO MASS PRODUCTION AND IS THE ONLY ONE OF ITS KIND. THIS SET MAY BE OLDER THEN 1959 AND IT ONCE WAS COVERED IN GOLD AND SILVER THAT HAS SINCE MOSTLY BEEN WASHED AND/OR WORN AWAY. THE DIFFERENCE IN HEIGHT BETWEEN LOWE CHESS SETS WAS MADE BY ADDING OR REMOVING PEDESTALS TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PIECES AT THE FACTORY. PHOTO’S #8,9,10 SHOWS THE 2 KINGS STANDING SIDE BY SIDE. SIZES: PAWN – 3″ WEIGHT: INDIVIDUAL PIECES FROM 6 OZ TO 1 LB, TOTAL SET 18.3 LBS HISTORY: MR. E.S. LOWE STARTED HIS COMPANY IN 1928 IN QUEENS N.Y., IN 1973 HE SOLD TO MILTON BRADLEY FOR $26MILLION DOLLARS. CONDITION: ALL PIECES HAVE A DEEP PATINA TO WHAT IS ASSUMED TO BE SOLID PEWTER. ALL PIECES HAVE A SHAVED SHINY BASE EXCEPT FOR THE GOLD KING AND THEY MAY HAVE HAD ONE PEDESTAL LEVEL CUT OFF AT THE BASE EXCEPT FOR THE GOLD KING THAT IS TALLER OR THE SHINY BASE COULD BE DUE TO SEPARATION FROM THE MOLD DURING PRODUCTION. . NOT ALL PIECES HAVE THE MAKERS MARK. IT MAY BE DIFFICULT TO TELL WHICH PIECES ARE FOR WHICH SIDE OF GAME PLAY BECAUSE THE FINISHES HAVE FADED. SOME PIECES HAVE A HINT OF GOLD OR SILVER REMAINING ON THEM. IN THE PHOTO’S THE PREVIOUSLY GOLD PIECES ARE ON THE RIGHT AND THE PREVIOUSLY SILVER PIECES ARE ON THE LEFT.
