DESCRIPTION

"Larsen's Selected Games of Chess" by Bent Larsen. Published in hardback by George Bell and Sons in 1970. First UK Edition. The book is in Very Good condition for its age. The binding is tight and there is no shelf lean. The page edge blocks are clean although the top edge is a little dusty and has a light coloured speckling on it. The boards are very clean and so are the internal pages. The book has clearly been well cared for over the years. There is a 'CHESS, Sutton Coldfield' sticker on the front endpaper. The dustjacket is in Good condition. It has had small camauflage repairs done to the head and tail of the spine and also to a closed tear on the rear cover (see scans). There are also a few miniscule chips to the dustjacket extremities that have, similarly, been camauflaged with red ink. The overall result is quite effective. The dustjacket is now protected by a removable see-through sleeve. Games are given in English descriptive notation. The Larsen autograph is on a card (dated 12th March 1986) that is loosely laid into the book and the card can, therefore, be either affixed in the book or removed and placed in some other collection. The card is also in Very Good condition. On the reverse of the card is the autograph of Jon Speelman. Further scanned images are available on request. Uninsured postage by Royal Mail within the UK is £3.50. Airmail postage to Europe and elsewhere will be extra - please ask me for details. PLEASE NOTE: AUCTION ITEMS WON FROM BIDDERS IN THE EU (and The USA, etc) WILL HAVE THEIR GOODS POSTED FROM THE REPUBLIC OF IRELAND (part of the EU) AND THIS WILL, HOPEFULLY, AVOID THE NEW BREXIT POSTAL TAX. (N.B. Customers in the GB area will have their goods posted from Northern Ireland - part of GB - as usual). Any questions, please just ask.
