sought-after ! Volkswagen Chess Game Wooden

Volkswagen wooden chess game, with original box and instructions.

It has been stored at home for several decades.
One chess piece is missing.

It's cute and sophisticated, so I kept it, but I've not ever been able to use it, so I'm putting it up for sale.

The box is also yellowed.
The rubber for storing the chess pieces on the side is deteriorated? It's come off.
Please understand that this is a used item.
