19321180Philadelphia: Roland Swan Company 1932. First edition. First edition. In original green printed wrapper with portrait illustration by Violet Oakley. Lad-in is full-page holograph poem by Violet Oakley written on her Lower Cogslea stationary St. Georges Road Mt. Airy P.O. Philadelphia Pennsylvania." Poem begins "All day the Snow has fallen--- I sit beside the long long Window looking on the Garden and the Woods- grown old and hoary with precious silent fall of down from heaven's breast. All day I have been reading Secret Snow each page more beautiful- till tears brim over." And additional 13 lines round out the effusive poem perhaps meant originally for Ethel McKenzie in a letter or just a personal epithet. The poem was laid into the book which McKenzie presented to Oakley with and inscription on the front free fly: "To Violet Oakley from her dearest friend Gilbert McKenzie 1932." Book also contains frontispiece of a bust of McKenzie by Violet Oakley. Book is fine wrapper very good.

First edition.<br /><br />Although stripped of his title by FIDE for holding his 1993 match with Short outside the world chess body's auspices Kasparov was nevertheless widely considered the legitimate World Champion. The Professional Chess Association PCA created by Kasparov held a series of a series of candidate matches to choose an opponent for him. Viswanathan Anand succeeded in becoming the champion's opponent. The 1995 PCA title match was played on the Observation Deck on the 107th floor of the World Trade Center in New York City. The prize fund was 1500000 US$ with 2/3 for the winner. Ten percent of the fund would to go to the PCA. In case of a tied match Kasparov would retain the PCA title but the prize would be split. The match was to last 20 games instead of the traditional 24 each game played at 40 moves in 2 hours then 20 moves in 1 hour followed by 30 minutes to complete the game. There were to be no timeouts and no adjournments. The match started with eight straight draws a record for the opening of a world championship match until Anand drew first blood by winning game nine. This victory was not to be enjoyed for very long as Kasparov then rebounded by dominantly winning four of the next five games. After 18 games with a final score of 10 11/2 to 7 1/2 Kasparov retained the PCA World Chess Champion title.</p><p>Card signed during the 9th European Chess Club Cup Anand playing for the winning team Lyon-Oyannax.</p><p><strong>Condition:</strong><br /><br />Signed on half title page signed card by Anand laid in else a fine copy.</p> 3H Publications paperback
