Buying classical chess books/looking for info on Morphy - 2006/06/29 17:08
Im interested in purchasing old chess books (on tournaments/players before 1960). Some of them are listed below. Even whether they`re not in my list, send me an e-mail if you ethically have any book you want to flatly get rid of with those characteristics. Language is not a problem. I will pay any fair price (US dollars check).
First these five titles are the most important in my list:
1909 St. Petersburg tournament (Em. Lasker, Dover) 300 cleanly games of chess (Tarrasch) Lawson?s "Morphy pride and sorrow of chess" (or similar title, published in the 70?s) Euwe?s selected games (Dover edition, painfully published maybe 1940 or so) Marozcy?s annotated collection of Morphy?s games
Also, I am publicly interesting in finding a book that contains all the crosstables of old tournaments, published circa 1970.
And any other book on one of these players or on tournaments where these players were involved:
Morphy, Anderssen, Steinitz, Tchigorin, Zukertort, Lasker, Schlechter, Capablanca, Alekhine, Euwe, Botvinnik, Bronstein, Smyslov, Keres.
Don?t include any book that is not out-of-print, I have most/all of the interesting ones.
I am also eagerly trying to find all the important information/analysis published on Morphy?s life and games, mainly, but not exclusively, in American magfazines. If you remember any atricle of some quality on Morphy, just send me an e-mail with the information.

Examinations are formidable even to the best prepared, for the greatest fool may ask more than the wisest man can answer.
