Chess Autographs collected by Laquer
Sándor and Tassy József - Rochefort, Budapest - started 1917, but the first autograph is from the year 1921.

I got this autograph book from a collector in Hungary.

It contains an introduction of 12 pages and 38 pages with autographs, 9 world champions - Lasker, Capablanca, Aljechin, Euwe, Botwinik, Smyslov, Tal, Petrossian and Spassky, a total of more than 200 diferent autographs, most of them I can identify, some are unknown.

A specific of this booklet are the wonderfull ink drawings of some of the chessplayers. It shows, that the collector also has been like an artist, sometimes a caricaturist.
