DESCRIPTION

This auction item consists of 22 issues of CHESS, Sutton Coldfield from the 1940s, privately bound as one volume. The spine of the volume reads: "Jan 1948 - Jan 1950" but that is not quite accurate. The actual issues contained in the volume are: Vol 13 (Magazine #148, Jan 1948) - Vol 15 (Magazine #172, Jan 1950) BUT MINUS Magazine #171, Dec 1948. Therefore, magazine numbers 148 - 170 are a complete run of 21 (July/Aug/Sept 1949 was a triple issue) consecutive issues, then there is a missing issue and finally there is magazine #172. In addition, the later 1948 issues and the Jan 1950 issue have the start of the Groningen 1946 Tournament Supplement, an extra 77pp. This makes a total of 624pp. The volume is in Good Plus condition. The binding is tight and there is no shelf lean. The magazines are also in Good Plus condition, commensurate with age. All the magazines have the usual vertical crease on them from having been posted back in the day. From a quick check of several pages I could not see any penned annotations or damage to any pages and it would appear from the overall condition of this volume that it has been well cared for over the years. No magazine covers are bound in. See accompanying volume, also in this auction. Games and positions are in English descriptive notation. Further scanned images are available on request. Heavy! Approx.unpacked weight: 935g. Postage by Royal Mail within the UK: £4.00. Postage to Europe and elsewhere will be extra. Please ask me for details.
