This is the patent that included the design for the famous "clutch" pressure connection. Strong enough to hold the blocks together but able to be pulled apart by little fingers.

 

They went through some hard times when electronic games first hit the market but now they are back on top.

 

Its hard to imagine how many little inventions have be made with these small pieces of plastic.

 

I really love Lego.

The Staunton chess set is composed of a particular type of chess pieces used to play the game of chess. According to the rules of chess, this style is to be used for competitions.

 

Nathaniel Cook is credited with the design, and they are named after Howard Staunton. The first 500 sets were hand signed and numbered by Staunton. This style of set was first made available by Jaques of London in 1849, and they quickly became the standard. They have been used around the world since

 

Note the pieces reflect the same heights as the pitched roof of the Parthanon. Cool huh.
