Bobby Fischer's "Dubrovnik" set was a "Minceta" version of the Dubrovnik...?

I personally think that Fischer's set was not the best of "Jakopovic". I think his set was a "regular" tournament set. Not something exclusive, made for special needs like this one:

But as I said, it cannot be determined exactly from the pictures what Fischer's set really was.

Hi Suboseg,

I agree that Fischer’s set wasn’t the best Jakopovic had to offer, but it was a rare version due to the design of the rooks. The set you posted is definitely a rarer design than even Fischer’s set. As "ChessShark" will explain, the king with a cross in the Dubrovnik sets is very rare and beautifully crafted set! Here is a video about this design, breaking down the different Dubrovnik designs and highlighting the basic similarities and differences between the sets. "ChessShark" is one of the best authorities on Jakopovic designs and has some great videos on the do's and don'ts in Dubrovnik reproductions! Thanks for sharing and love the picture you posted! I would love a set like that....

Secrets of high quality vintage ("Jakopovic") Dubrovnik chess sets

Apologies for joining the discussion so late. You can see Bobby's Dubrovnik chess pieces more clearly in a series of photos taken by David Attie on August 10, 1971, in New York City.

The craziest thing of all, to me at least, is that one of his sets were stolen. This means that somewhere out there somebody has one of Bobby's sets. However, I don't think they can talk about it much, because whoever may have it now would be in receipt of stolen property. Perhaps it is locked away in some rich persons private collection, never again to be in the public eye. Seems a shame, really. It should be in a museum for anyone to see.

It wasn't "stolen" so much as it was "forfeit" for failure to pay the storage company.
