Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 114 pages with diagrams and index. Octavo (8 1/4" x 5 3/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. (Lusis: 1429) First edition. In selecting Temesvar 1912 as ETV's lead off volume, the editor has chosen a tournament with is seldom available to the collecting fraternity. Scarcity alone, it must be emphasized, doesn't determine the value of a tournament book. In addition to being a scarce tournament title, Temesvar 1912 features a coterie of Hungarian masters destined to play an important role in the early 29th Century European chess history. The names of Richard Reti and Julius Breyer (mercurial, surprise tournament winner), together with such recognized masters as Lajos Asztalos, Zsigmond Barasz, Zoltan von Balla, Kornel Havasi and Károly Sterk, clearly qualify Temesvar as a significant event. The editor elected to annotate fifteen of the some 105 games played in the Second Hungarian Chess Congress. The major tournament can be described as a mixed tournament, in which six acknowledge masters were to be found among the fifteen participants. The results were surprising. The young Breyer, won the first prize without loss a game, after leading for thirteen straight rounds. Second was Asztalos and with this win attained master title in the Hungarian Chess Federation. Third through fourth was shared by Zoltan von Bella with Lajos Merenyi. Condition: Head corner bumped else a near fine copy.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. xiv+537 pages with diagrams, plates, tables, indexes and bibliography. Royal octavo (9 1/4" x 6 1/4") issued in red cloth with gilt lettering. Publisher's preface by Dale Bradreth. First edition. Carl Adalbert Hermann Schlechter was born in Vienna, Austria in 1874.(1) He learned the rules of chess when about 13 years old,(1) probably under the influence of problem composer Samuel Gold. Schlechter visited a business school (Handelsschule) and worked for a short time, before concentrating on chess.(1). Berthold Englisch recognized his talent and introduced him to the Viennese chess life in 1892. Already in early 1893, Schlechter won a tournament in Vienna ahead of Georg Marco. He further established himself among Vienna's strongest players with a shared 3rd place in the Winter tournament 1893/1894. At 9th DSB Kongress, Leipzig (1894) he finished only 11th out of 18. In 1895, he finished only 3rd in the Vienna Championship, but put up a solid performance at the great Hastings (1895) tournament with place 9/22 and a win over the tournament winner Harry Nelson Pillsbury in their individual encounter. The year 1896 was busy and successful for him, as it began with a shared 1st place at the Vienna Championship 1896, followed by a second place in the Vienna Chess Club tournament. After a good +3 score at the great Nuremberg (1896) tournament, Schlechter finished equal fourth at Budapest (1896). In November 1896, he came in 2nd in a Vienna tournament behind David Janowski, but ahead of Simon Winawer and Jacques Mieses. Schlechter dominated the Vienna tournament 1897 and had a solid result at Berlin (1897). The year 1898 began with a slightly disappointing result at the Vienna Chess Club tournament, but then he came in 5th at Vienna (1898) and shared 6th place at 11th DSB Kongress, Cologne (1898). The strong London (1899) tournament saw him coming in 5th again. Schlechter shared 2nd place at the second Kolisch Memorial in Vienna (1899/1900). At Paris (1900) he shared 7th place, but he followed up with a shared 1st place at Munich (1900) drawing Pillsbury in the final tie-break match (+1 -1 =2). He dominated the Master Group of the Vienna Winter tournament 1900. This was followed in 1901 by a 2nd place at Monte Carlo (1901). One year later, he had to satisfy himself with a shared 5th place at Monte Carlo (1902) and a 50% score in a Vienna tournament though. After a 4th place at Monte Carlo (1903), Schlechter disappointed at Vienna (1903). The King's Gambit Accepted tournament at Vienna 1903, was also not a success for him. Despite these discouraging results, Schlechter had a good year 1904. Unbeaten, he came in 2nd at Monte Carlo (1904), followed by a shared 6th place at Cambridge Springs (1904). In the USA, he also competed successfully in a team match. Schlechter shared 1st place at Coburg (Meisterturnier) (1904) before winning the Vienna (1904) King's Gambit Declined tournament, which extended into 1905. The year 1905 continued to be a successful one for Schlechter with his triumph at the Austro-Hungarian Championship in Vienna, followed by a 4th place at Ostend (1905) and a shared 4th place at the Barmen Meisterturnier A (1905). Schlechter did not slow down and turned 1906 into a banner year for him. First, he shared 1st place at Stockholm (1906) together with Dr. Ossip Bernstein. He then went on to win the huge Ostende 1906 tournament, followed by 3rd place at Stockholm (1906). Schlechter only reached 6th place at 1st Trebitsch Memorial (1907). This was followed by a 2nd place at Ostend (Championship) (1907) and a shared 2nd place at Copenhagen (1907). The strong Karlsbad (1907) tournament saw him sharing 4th place together with Aron Nimzowitsch. 1908 turned out to be another banner year for Schlechter, who shared 1st place at Vienna (1908) together with Geza Maroczy and Oldrich Duras, and shared 1st place again with Duras at Prague (1908). The great St Petersburg (1909) tournament was a disappointment for him, but the next year.
