Later in half cloth binding. "Excerpt from The Chess Euclid: A Collection of Two Hundred Chess Problems and End-Games The kind solicitations of some of my intimate friends have induced me to publish this collection of Problems. My first intention was, that they should form a supplement to a more instructive work than I conceived this would be namely, a Treatise on the Endings of Games, by my friend Mr. Horwitz and myself; a subject which has occupied our leisure hours for some time past. My professional avoca tions have so long delayed the completion of our labours.".

Store description

The Abaúj Antique Bookshop which was founded in 1996 is one of the most significant representatives of the Hungarian second-hand book trade. The second-hand bookshop I lead organizes numerous book auctions year by year in Budapest. I make a catalogue out of the most unique themes every summer. My favourites are autographed books and manuscripts. Autographed books and manuscripts of internationally-recognised writers, poets, historical figures and celebrities can be found in my collection. You cannot even imagine how many rare books and manuscripts can be found in Central Europe! I have created the abaujantique.com website in order to make the world aware of us and get to know us. I would like to get to know your interests and add rare items to your collection. Kind Regards from a booklover, János Pogány…
