I am so happy this photo was included. I was wondering if any of my counters were missing from the game. This photo was an invaluable (and quick) research tool. Many thanks!
This allowed me to discover that I was only missing one counter, instead of 4. The three blanks are missing from my set, and one other counter, which will be easy to reproduce.
Helpful for me too. I received my game this week. It came from eBay and apparently was complete, but I have 78 of the 88 counters. So, thanks for posting this image!
