The OJ Trial of the Century Chess set- with all the players! Justice is not about truth or right or wrong- it is a GAME! A cast of characters in this one of a kind board game includes all the media personalities who covered the trial, as well as the attorneys, cops and witnesses who gave the world an insightful look at the American Justice System. F.Lee Bailey hold a bottle of booze while LAPD detective Mark Furhman holds a bloody glove! Created by “Cop to Call Girl” author and artist Norma Jean Almodovar during the trial which ran concurrent to Heidi Fleiss’ trial in 1995.

    So out there it’s FANTASTIC!! And you made it yourself which, of course, makes it even better. Really really really really really spectacular example of Kitsch. Kudos!!

    I cannot tell you how happy this makes me. I love that we will have these artifacts forever from that questionable time in American justice. this is so brilliant. Thank you.

    Thank you for your comments! It was a b.tch to create as every day one of the minor characters became a major player and I had to redo them and give them more prominence as a bishop or knight rather than just a pawn… it took me 8 months to finish it! I almost had a deal with King Features to mass produce it, but when the verdict came down, so did the deal! I wish you could see Mark Furhman holding the bloody glove!
