DESCRIPTION

"101 Partijen van het Europees Schaaktournooi te Hilversum, 1947" by Max Euwe. Published in maroon hardback by L.G.Eggink in 1947. First Edition. 208pp. L/N: 5708. The book is in Good Plus condition for its age. The binding is tight and there is no shelf lean or bowing present. The boards are clean. The gilt lettering on the front board has faded slightly but is still very clear. The gilt lettering on the spine has faded but is still readable. The book is inscription, annotation and foxing free. The page edge blocks are evenly tanned from age. Internally the pages have tanned a little due to the poorer quality of paper available so soon after the end of WW2. These pages are, however, very clean and stain free and it is obvious that this book has been well cared for over the years. A few pages have corner creases from mishandling (see last scan). No dustjacket (unlikely that one was ever issued). This tournament was the first Zonal Chess Tournament after the war to start the process of finding a new World Champion following the death of Alekhine in 1946. O'Kelly won from Pachman, Trifunovic, etc. Games are given in Dutch language and algebraic notation. Further scanned images are available on request. Standard airmail postage (see An Post.com website for prices) based on book weight will be used, unless winning bidder requires signature on delivery or insurance, etc. Any questions, please just ask. 

PLEASE NOTE: I AM NOW BASED IN THE REPUBLIC OF IRELAND AND, THEREFORE, ALL SALES TO EUROPEAN DESTINATIONS (APART FROM GB) WILL BE IN EUROS AND SHIPPED DIRECT EU - EU (THUS AVOIDING ANY BREXIT POSTAL TAXES). CUSTOMERS IN THE GB AREA CAN STILL AVAIL OF SHIPPING DIRECT GB - GB AS I CAN SHIP FROM NORTHERN IRELAND, ALTHOUGH THERE WILL BE A SLIGHT DELAY IN POSTING. CUSTOMERS IN THE USA AND THE RoW WILL HAVE THEIR ORDER SHIPPED FROM THE REPUBLIC OF IRELAND.
