Once
more the auction house Klittich-Pfankuch had invited to an auction
of chess literature, in addition the day before (22 June) a little
garden party had been arranged - as usual accompanied by an obliging
catering by Adelheid and Roger Klittich. We take the opportunity
to express our thanks to the Klittich-Pfankuch family for the hospitality
they showed once again as well as for the excellent quality of the
auction, certainly those KWA members present "rewarded"
that by corresponding bidding battles.

evening in the Italian restaurant Al Duomo together with our Belgian

bernd
ellinghoven showed us the manuscripts of "Studies on chess history",
i.e. part I of the "new Murray": being a compilation of
essays it resembles only little its predecessor. |
