Seller Description
This is the Spanish language tournament book of the famous 1960 Buenos Aires event. It was won by Viktor Korchnoi and Samuel Reshevsky in front of Laszlo Szabo and Larry Evans.See the photographs for further placings. Bobby Fischer played in possibly his worst tournament, tying for 13th place. It has been said that this was due to Fischer’s involvement with a professional woman during the event. The book is printed on good quality paper and is in Spanish descriptive notation. There is a slight bend of the upper 1 inch part of the spine, and a faint price in pencil on the lower right back cover. Otherwise, the book is an excellent condition with a sound binding. It has many photographs, good annotations, diagrams, an openings review, profiles of players, a summary of the tournament, and an article about the personalities of the players. The book is quite rare, and I could only find one copy for sale on several search engines. That copy would cost $48 plus $22 shipping to deliver to the United States from Argentina.
