Holladay, Edgar: "SHEPPARD TWO-MOVERS". 100 Selected Two-move Chess Problems By Charles W. Sheppard. Presented with comments by EDGAR HOLLADAY. Published by R. E. Burger with the cooperation of the California Chess Reporter, San Francisco, California 1963. Copyright 1963 by Edgar Holladay.

San Francisco, R. E. Burger & California Chess Reporter, 1963. Original stapled softback edition, with nice and original design with Blue covers, and another Brown covers inside. Portrait frontis of Sheppard (young) + 40 unnumbered pages (including Title page) + another Portrait of Sheppard (old). 21,2 x 14 cm. In English.

 

Very good: Sticker of British Chess Problem Society on inside front cover and two inked corrections on the errata page. Minimal defects on the covers, with very slight browning on the edges and a small spot on the top near the spine of the front cover. Some very slight wrinkles in a few pages. Staples in optimal condition without rust. Inside in very good or excellent condition.

100 two-move chess problems with comments, of the American composer Charles W. Sheppard (1886-1963). I believe this was the first book by the author.
