DESCRIPTION

Chess Problems:

Chess Problems by the late C.M. Baxter; collected and arrranged by C.R Baxter. Dundee, Winter, Duncan & Co. 1883. 8°, 202 pages. 1 portrait plate. With a lot of diagrams. 19cm. Betts 33-7A. Nice publisher binding with embossed illustration and gilt lettering on front and spine.

"19 two-movers, 85 three-movers, 43 four-movers by C.M. Baxter and 27 problems [...] by the compiler, his cousin. Solutions appear on pages 185-202." (Betts)

A dedication in the authors handwriting on first endpaper. 

Condition: Binding with slight wear. Spine with a few spots. Paper edges with slight foxing. Otherwise inside nice and clean. Overall Assessment = Good to Very Good!


Postage EUR (insurance included): Non-EU countries please ask! I try to choose the most cost-effective yet reliable way.

I combine shipping – you always pay just real postage! The packing materials are free.

I send with the so-called "Paketmarke" (for further information https://www.post.at/privat_versenden_paket_paketmarke.php) which is, in general, the most cost-effective and reliable way to send parcels to Austria. One feature is that the shipment costs are defined via the longest and the shortest side of the parcel. The weight isn´t important although it is limited to 31,5 kg. The parcel is also insured up to € 500,-.

  1. PM 045 = longest and the shortest side of the parcel is added max. 45 cm) GER=€9,90, other EU = €12,90
  2. PM 070 = longest and the shortest side of the parcel is added max. 70 cm) GER=€14,90, other EU = €17,90
  3. PM 120 = longest and the shortest side of the parcel are added max. 120 cm) GER=€19,90, other EU = €22,90

Therefore if you win more than 1 lot and the books fit into the same parcel, the shipping costs will be the same as for 1 book. 

Important: Please wait with payment until you get my confirmation email, as the shipping costs have to be calculated.
