Dear Chessfriends,

The biggest parts of the sales have finished! A big success for the CCCA
with almost all of the best and biggest items taken. There are some real
bargains remaining if you look carefully!

Now, we want to clear out a bunch of the stuff remaining.

The prices on the enclosed list can be reduced by 40%, i.e., the prices
shown are the old prices and you can deduct 40% from these prices. (This
will be the last attempt to move these books at reduced prices. After this
sale, the prices go back to the listed prices. We will honor these prices
until June 1, 1998!) Postage for Canada is $5 for the first book and $2 per
book thereafter with free postage for orders totalling $500 or more. US
residents must pay 20% of the old prices for postage with a minimum of $15
with no free postage available. Sorry, but the postage to the US is quite
expensive and one can buy considerable books at these ridiculously low
prices! If you wish to pay in US$, please calculate the amount owing and
multiply by .75, i.e., take 75% of the Canadian$ amount. For foreign orders
please contact me for shipping cost.

(N.B. I am seeing new DOVER books at $8 for the smallest books to $12 for
mid size books. Normal SC's of Cadogan and Batsford are running at $30 ++.)

There are about 50 items included in lists one and two that were not on the
previous lists. Discounts apply to these books also.

My fax number is 416-236-4136.
My e-mail address is jkm@echo-on.net
My phone number is 416-236-4136. This is the line I use for the internet. It
has an answering machine on it most of the time. My line with an answering
machine all the time is 416-234-0207. These two numbers are at home. No
collect calls.

Regards,

Ken

P.S. This list is being mailed first to those who purchased from our most
recent offerings. Others will get this list after a couple of weeks have
passed.

 During the late 60's and early 70's, The Chess Player and Chess Digest
published small SC tournament books which were something like bulletins in
that they contained all the games but rarely had any notes. We are grouping
the books we have from this series in the following section of the list.

0243. Kharkov 1967, 35th USSR Championship.
 138 gms. 50pp. $4

0245. Zagreb 1969. 120 gms. 44pp. $3

0248. Mar del Plata 1971. 120 gms. 40pp. $3

0249. San Antonio 1972. 130 gms. 38pp. $3

 There is another group of tournament books of no pattern. They are small SC
booklets with few pages. Since they are published by various sources, there
is no common description to attach to them other than short and SC. We will,
therefore, describe each as we go along. They are presented in chronological
sequence, as usual.

0252. Moscow 1976, 44th USSR Championship.
 153 gms., 36pp. Karpov wins. $4

0253. Leningrad 1977, 45th USSR Championship.

books described previously!

Tournament Bulletins

 Most international tournaments issue bulletins as the tournament
progresses. We have a large number of these sets of bulletins available.
 You will note a wide variance in the quality of these bulletins. Some look
like poor Xerox copies. The reason for this may be that they are produced as
Xerox copies or they may have been reproduced from the master copy at the
tournament in this fashion. It may also be that they are copies of the
original. Some of these bulletins may be copies of articles which acted as
bulletins, e.g., copies from the USSR magazine, "64".
 Most of the bulletins we offer are indeed original issues as you will
notice! Some, however, are issued after the fact. The old tournaments here
do not have original bulletins from those years.
 Tournament bulletins rarely have annotations but some do have diagrams.
 We offer the bulletins below listed in chronological sequence to make it
easier for you to find what you are seeking. We have listed the top
finishers in each event. When we show "MacDonald + 3", this means that three
tied for 2nd place.
 These bulletins are priced to sell with the cheapest items usually
containing the smallest amount of material.

Chess Olympiads

 The chess Olympiads are very large events so we thought we should have a
special section for books and bulletins for these events. Full sets of the
bulletins are usually only published in small runs. Most are handed out to
the players. The cost of these publications are quite high with specialized
book dealers. We are asking for more than normal books, but less than one
would see them offered at by dealers. When we have offered these in the
past, they haven't lasted long. Most Olympiads have thousands of games.
Bulletins are marked as such.

unacceptable, you should advise me with your order and I will avoid sending
you a book with these marks. Don't expect to buy many books from his list if
you do!!
