    Petrosyan. Year after year. Volume 2 (1963-1984)
    Author:
    Gezalyan

    International Master Tibor Karolyi and FIDE Master Tigran Gozalyan have prepared a major work (in two volumes) about the life and work of the 9th world chess champion Tigran Petrosyan (he held the title from 1963 to 1969).  Volume II (1963-1984) tells about Petrosyan's victory in the 1963 world title match over Mikhail Botvinnik, about the grandiose two-match confrontation with Boris Spassky in 1966 and 1969, about all his candidates' matches after losing the title – against Bobby Fischer, Viktor Korchnoi and other world-class opponents. All tournaments and matches of the second half of Petrosian's chess career are presented, up to his last performances in 1983. The authors subjected 175 complete games and fragments to an in-depth analysis (using modern computers). Not all of them have been deeply studied and commented on before, but even then the book provides a significantly improved analysis. Among Petrosyan’s opponents – world champions and contenders Kasparov, Karpov, Fischer, Spassky, Tal, Smyslov, Botvinnik, Korchnoi and Bronstein, as well as Timman, Larsen, Reshevsky, Belyavsky, Polugaevsky, Portisch, Romanishin and many others. Special attention is paid to his coaches – Alexey Suetin and Igor Zaitsev.

    Author:
    Bezgodov

    The youngest first–grader in the USSR, the world champion among young men, a participant in the candidates tournament at the age of 19 - Boris Spassky's rise was rapid. And then fate gave the brilliant chess player a test of strength: he stumbled twice at the decisive moment and remained beyond the threshold of interzonal tournaments ... Only ten years after his first great success, Spassky managed to pass all the qualifying tests and earn the right to a match for the crown, but he failed to defeat the Iron Tigran Petrosian the first time. It took three more years of super–efforts: by Sisyphus he rose again to the foot of Olympus and did not miss a second chance - in 1969 he became the Tenth king of chess! An essay about the life of Boris Vasilyevich and his sporting path full of ups and downs was written by Dmitry Oleynikov, Candidate of Historical Sciences, curator of the Chess Museum of the Chess Federation of Russia. 70 beautiful and instructive games of Spassky were commented on by the champion of Russia in 1993, the famous author and theorist grandmaster Alexey Bezgodov, as well as grandmaster Dmitry Kryakvin and FIDE master Steve Giddins. The preface was written by the 14th world champion Vladimir Kramnik. For a wide range of chess fans.

  • Chess made of mammoth bone and ebony. Staunton.
    book

    15000.00 $

    The white figures are made of mammoth bone. In order to eliminate the staining of figures with black paint, the manufacturer decided to use an equally luxurious material for black figures - ebony in its natural and natural form.  Ebony is a dense black-brown hardwood that comes from several species of the genus Diospyros. This wood is used to make chess pieces because of its strength, fine texture and mirror shine when polished. It is noteworthy that ebony wood sinks in water due to its high density. Ebony is considered to be precious and one of the most expensive types of wood The sizes of the shapes: King: Height - 10.3cm Base diameter - 5 cm A pawn: Height - 5 cm Base diameter - 3.5 cm Horse: Height - 6 cm Base diameter - 4 cm Rook: Height - 5.7cm Base diameter - 4 cm Elephant: Height - 6.6cm Base diameter - 4 cm Queen: Height - 8.5 cm Base diameter - 4 cm Board size: 52.5x52.5x11 cm The size of the playing field is 46x46 cm The size of the game cage is 5.5 cm The size of the shipping case: 63x59x14 cm These chess sets represent exactly the first model of the Staunton design of 1849. Staunton is a standard chess piece design created in the mid-19th century by Nathaniel Cook. This chess design got its name in honor of the famous English chess player Howard Staunton, who lived in the 19th century. The FIDE organization recommends Staunton chess for competitions held under its auspices. Until the middle of the 19th century, every country in Europe where chess tournaments were held had its own traditional standards for chess piece designs (Barleycorn, Calver, Selenus, St. George, Lund, Regence, etc.), which was undoubtedly very inconvenient during international competitions. Nathaniel Cook registered Staunton chess on March 1, 1849, however, in the same year the rights to this chess design passed to John Jacquet, who was the brother of Nathaniel Cook's wife and owned John Jaques of London, specializing in the manufacture and sale of sports equipment. The first set of chess designed by Staunton went on sale on September 8, 1849. At the same time, the periodical "The Illustrated London News", well-known at that time, printed an advertising article stating that Howard Staunton himself was one of the creators of this wonderful design of chess pieces. There is a version that the famous chess player wrote the article, as he subsequently actively contributed to the promotion of this chess set on the market. Howard Staunton's facsimile signature was displayed under the cover of the chessboards of the first Staynton sets, and one of his books was attached to the set for free as an advertisement. However, there is an assumption that the real author of the Staunton design is John Jacquet, and Cook only registered it for himself and subsequently attracted Howard Staunton to promote chess on the market. In 1940, German aircraft bombed the John Jaques of London factory. Historical sketches and drawings of Staunton chess pieces burned down in the fire. The first Staunton chess sets were carved from ivory or hardwoods (for example, boxwood). Later, they began to be created from mammoth tusks and various valuable tree species such as wenge, ebony, boxwood, etc.
