Sobre este artículo
Hardcover in fair condition. Black leather with gilt title and decoration, raised bands on the spine, 10 in tall, sewn binding. A scrapbook of 14 weekly chess columns pasted on 34 pages, 18 blank leaves. The chess columns were published in 1866 in the New York Leader, a weekly literary magazine, and were probably written and annotated by Charles H. Stanley, although the columns show no attribution. The 51 annotated chess games reported in the newspaper clippings include the 5 games of the 1866 match for the championship of the United States between G. H. Mackenzie of the New York Chess Club and G. Reichhelm of the Philadelphia Chess Club. Also include are 3 games played by Wilhelm Steinitz, 2 played by Paul Morphy, and 9 played by Adolf Anderssen. A library discard, noncirculating copy. Label affixed to pastedown identifies this copy as part of the Peter G. Toepfer chess collection of 1918. Spine shows paper label with library code. Covers have surface wear at tips and hinges, soil spots to the rear cover.
