Descripción del artículo del vendedor

"ALPINE CHESS - A Collection of Problems by Swiss Composers" by Dr. M. Henneberger. 1921 1st edition; Office of "The Chess Amateur"; Stroud, UK. Edited by George Hume and Alain C. White. This copy contains a tipped-in Christmas Greetings slip from White at the front: "Wishing You a Merry Christmas. Alain C. White. Litchfield, Conn. U.S.A. Dec. 25th, 1921." The book contains illustrations of chess board positions and photographic portraits throughout. This title is part of White's annual "Christmas Series." Alain C. White was an internationally renowned expert on chess. He collected one of the most comprehensive libraries on chess problems in the world. Between 1905 and 1936, he wrote or edited 44 annual volumes known as the "Christmas Series," which he sent to other chess enthusiasts; the volumes often contained a Christmas Greetings slip inside (the slip is present within this particular copy). The books were highly valued for their collection of diverse and challenging chess problems. They were initially sent as free gifts to friends of White, but they were also offered for sale. The books are considered a significant contribution to the world of Chess problems. Condition: Light soiling to the covers. The gilt lettering on the spine has partially faded. There are cracks at the front and rear hinges with the webbing exposed resulting in the covers being a bit shaky. The text pages are in nice condition - clean with only a 1.5" tear at the top edge of page 235 and the following blank rear end paper. The "Dr. M. Henneberger" photographic plate is present but has detached. Overall the book is in Good- condition.
