"MATSH TÜRN-RINNE"
2nd Official Estonian Chess Championship, Tallinn 1925
Extremely rare, very scarce and incredibly hard to find
Not in L/N
SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR AND CHAMPION, J. TÜRN!!
By J. Türn (Tallinna 1926)
Türn, Johannes: "Matsh Türn-Rinne". Eesti malemeistri nime peale. Lisa: Parim käik. Toimetanud Eesti malemeister J. TÜRN.
Tallinna, "Teaduse" Kirjastus, 1926. Nice private half linen binding (no printings), with a paper showing a beautiful set of Egyptian chess pieces, and preserving inside the front cover of the original softcover edition. Blank leaf + original front cover + blank leaf + 64 pages (including Title page) + blank leaf. 17,3 x 11,1 cm. In Estonian.
Very good: The only flaw worth noting, are some light pencil highlights in few pages, and light notations on the lower outer side of page 14, in pencil, surely easy to erase. Otherwise, in excellent condition.
Not in L/N. EXTREMELY RARE, VERY SCARCE, AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO FIND.
This book shows in full, with all its games, the Match played by the Champion of the 1st Estonian Official Chess Championship, Paul Rinne, and the aspirant Johannes Türn, who was proclaimed new Estonian Chess Champion, after winning forcefully by 9½ - 4½ (6 wins, 1 loss and 7 draws).
In the 31 editions of the Klittich-Pfankuch Auktion that I know, 2003 November - 2006 June, and 2008 November - 2020 June, a copy of this book was never auctioned.
ABSOLUTE RARITY, AND A UNIQUE AND SPECIAL COPY!! In my life I have only seen 3 copies of this book, and this is the only copy that I have seen dedicated by the Author, J. Türn, who was the Champion.
J. Türn: triple Estonian Chess Champion: 1925, 1941 and 1944 (tied with August Eller).
