DESCRIPTION

"The English Counties Chess Unions"

COMBINED YEAR BOOK

1934-1935

 

van Meurs, John Henry (Ed.): "The English Counties Chess Unions. COMBINED YEAR BOOK 1934-1935". Comprising the Annual Year Books of the Constituent County Associations of the Southern, Midland and Northern Counties Chess Unions.

Leeds, WHITEHEAD & MILLER LTD., 1934. Original publisher stapled and glued sofback edition. 368 pages (including Title page) with 6 portraits, a few illustrations, tables. 18,2 x 12 cm. In English.

 

Fair: Binding with slight wear and soil, paper browned. Staples rusty. My copy only in fair condition. Extremely fragile paper, especially in the first and last pages that present some tears and small losses without affecting the text. A delicate and gentle handling is recommended. Approximately, the first 4 and the last 4 pages were loose and have been fixed to the book with invisible cellophane. In some corner, tiny waste of paper, as on pages 17-60 and 159-178. Delicate repair to the lower outer corner of pages 91-96 with invisible cellophane. A glue repair of the spine was also necessary.

 

In the photos section I attach 3 photos of the covers and the spine, as well as the 2 photos of the complete set of 10 Volumes. In addition, in the following link you can see the 22 additional photos that show with great precision the current state of the 1934-5 Yearbook: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsV5dlwXFfTPgclRttNoeZELk6CnZQ?e=lHaesL

 

In the following link it is possible to see the Stikuw's auction copy from February 27, 2021, in better condition: http://www.chesslund.com/detail.asp?id=24901

 

L/N 5925; Betts 8-34; Di Felice 2967.

 

Please see the other items in my current auction, as I am auctioning all Volumes of "The English Counties Chess Unions" series, 8 in all, from 1931-2 to 1938-9. And also the 2 Volumes of the predecessor series "The Southern Counties Chess Union", 1929-30 and 1930-1. These last 2 volumes are neither in L/N nor in Kieler Schachkatalog.

 

In the photos section I have added the 2 photos of the complete set of 10 Volumes, so you can see it, although each Volume is auctioned individually.
