Welcome to my sale of chess periodicals.
Le Palamède, Revue Mensuelle des Échecs at autres Jeux, 1846.
Marbled paper boards with leather spine covering and corners. Backstrip is missing and has paper label with PALAMÈDE 1846. Some foxing. Boards are becoming loose.
576 pages including Table des Matières.
The name and address of H. Meyer is written on front free endpaper, and I believe that this is Heinrich F. L. Meyer the problem composer and author.
A folding sheet contains a facsimile of part of a letter from A. D. Philidor dated 1790.
The diagrams have very distinctive characters for the chesspieces, and this volume also includes some wonderful engravings.
Many articles of interest with contributions from the editor St. Amant, Alphonse Delannoy, George Walker, Ernest Morphy, F. Alliey, and many others.
