DESCRIPTION

Postcard autographed by Chess Grandmaster Richard Réti on April 15, 1924

Réti participated in the New York Chess Tournament from March 16 to April 18 at the Alamac Hotel. He won the first beauty prize for his game with the Whites against Bogoljubov and also inflicted On Capablanca his first defeat in eight years. This victory helped make him famous.

Willie Reginald Bray (30 April 1879 – 6 June 1939), also known as "The Autograph King", was an English eccentric who first experimented with the limits of the British postal system, including having himself delivered as a letter, and later moved into autograph collecting, amassing over 15,000 autographs by the time of his death.


In addition, all items in Mr. Bray's collection are highly sought after around the world.
