ABSTRACT:
A holder assembly has strips of contact engaging material on the backs of the playing pieces and compatible strips of contact engaging strips on an obverse face of a piece holder adapted to rest upon a planar support. A hand grip protrudes from the reverse face of the piece holder. The grip is contoured to afford an easy grip to a player, especially those handicapped by arthritis or other hand crippling diseases. The grip is oblong and its long axis is at an angle to the lower edge of the holder, which seats on the planar support. The grip has opposed ends and the lower end is spaced from the lower holder edge so that it acts as a leg to support the holder at an angle to the support surface for better visibility of the playing pieces secured removeably to the holder by the contact between the engaging material strips on the pieces and on the holder. The pieces may be laid face down on the support and the holder then pressed upon them to be erected with the pieces in order in front of the player.
