Ah, yes. The Chess Company. Chess Co. Founded by Robert Chess.

Robert Chess is a fraud. The real master mind behind chess was Thomas Chess. His brother just stole his idea and ran with it

Not true, Thomas Chess has as much claim as Robert Chess regarding ownership since the roots of the original can be traced back to the notes of their father Sir Gary Chess the First.

The line is quite well preserved within the Chess family but internal conflicts are known to occur
