The Perfect Gift For Father's Day Features Unique Chess Sets For Dad

New gift idea perfect for the man who has everything this Father's Day. Vertically wall mounted chess board allows chess to be played in an entirely new way.

Denver, CO (PRWEB) May 12, 2009 -- Father's Day is a time for remembering the very special men in your life, and showing them how much you appreciate them.

It has been said that one of the ten best gifts for a man is a chess set. This year, even the man who has everything will be surprised with a great new gift idea from Straight Up Chess.

Straight Up Chess (http://www.straightupchess.com) has created a vertical wall mounted chess board that is so classy and unique it can hang anywhere from the board room to the game room.

"I've loved playing chess from the time I was a small boy," stated Steve Schrier, president and inventor of Straight Up Chess. "As a working adult with a business and a family, finding the time to play a full game became the challenge. Straight Up Chess was my solution:"

There are no time clocks when you play on a Straight Up Chess board. This is a casual game that takes very little time out of your day, and allows you to play with a fellow chess player over the course of several hours, days, or even weeks. Because the board hangs on the wall, your tables and living/working area remain clear. As you pass by, make your move, mark it with the "last move" marker and continue on your way. Later, your opponent passes by, makes his move, marks it as "last move" and the game continues.

Straight Up Chess offers customized chess boards (http://www.straightupchess.com/store/index.cfm?category=2&CFID=7392423&CFTOKEN=73061494) in a variety of colors, styles and options. The boards are created in two different sizes, either 2 ½ inch or 3 inch, to fit the chess pieces of your choice. With six separate chessboard backgrounds, ten standard framing options, several custom framing options including Aspen logs, barn board, and forest material, and a variety of chess playing pieces, the possibilities are endless.

"Straight Up Chess is continually looking for unique ideas to incorporate into its chess design, and to make chess a fun experience for everyone," stated Schrier. "Our Straight Up Chess boards provide art and entertainment all in one complete gift package. It's a perfect gift for Dad this Father's Day"
