The chess-players' manual : containing the laws of the game according to the revised code laid down by the British chess association in 1862
A chess manual by George Hatfield Dingley Gossip, published in New York and London by Routledge in 1888, setting out the rules of the game under the 1862 British Chess Association code for club players and students. The pictures are plain line diagrams of chess positions with black pieces at top and white at bottom, labelled BLACK and WHITE, so a designer can use them for board-game graphics, grid patterns or hatched geometric textures.
