  • JSP Vol 04 No 11 1966Jul
    V v v JiotipMfcAt Number 11 July 1966 Volume 4 THE CASES 0? THE "DIRTY DOZEN" - Harold Wasserman - In the field of philately, even after many years, there are many problems which have defied solution. Many experts have tackled these Items, but complete answers are still lacking. The field of sports collecting is certainly no different. After all, isn't every sports stamp still a stamp from a country? Isn't a philatelic problem to a collec­ tor of, say, Austria a matter of concern to sports collectors if the stamps involved are the First and Second Ski sets? Now, If these problems involve sports stamps, shouldn't we, as sports philatelists, make a determined effort to help in their solution? There are a number of unresolved questions dealing with sport stamps. I have select­ ed twelve of these, which I call the "Dirty Dozen". I would like to present one of these to you to see if among us we cannot come up with an answer. Case 1: The Case of the Disappearing Cancellations In 1946 Albania Issued a set of seven stamps in connection with the Balkan Games held in Tirana, October 6-13, 1946. (Incidentally, "Landmans" and Seebacher label it the Tenth Games whereas "Schmidt-Schneider" call it the Twelfth.) Supposedly 50,000 sets were is­ sued. Certainly I have found no information to contradict this number. Mint sets are by no means plentiful, but they can be found. The current catalog price of §15.75 ($2.25 Per stamp right down the line) is misleading. Dealers who are up on the market charge from $15.00 to $20.00 per set, when they have them.

  • Mar Del Plata and Buenos Aires
    BUENOS AIRES AND MAR DEL PLATA Originally by Jan van Reek, 1945 – 2015, www.endgame.nl (now inactive), reviewed and extended 35 Mar del Plata closed invitation tournaments (numbered series!), about 20 major Buenos Aires closed invitation tournaments will be presented, plus famous the Mar del Plata Open series, World Championships & Candidates matches and two Olympiads. After exhibitions and simuls by Géza Maróczy in 1925 & Alexander Alekhine in 1926 given in the city of Buenos Aires, and the famous World Championship match in 1927 between Raul Capablanca and Alexander Alekhine, Argentine chess improved immensely, when many players stayed in Buenos Aires after the Chess Olympiad in 1939, due to the outbreak of World War II. Main immigrants were Najdorf, Eliskases, Stahlberg (later moving to Sweden), or already earlier Pilnik, plus today forgotten chess masters. Strong international tournaments could be held. The new events helped them in survival and gave a training. Keres co-won the Circulo in 1939. Other European players joined after WW II: ie. Euwe, Szabo, O'Kelly, or Pomar had a hard time in Argentina against mentioned Najdorf, Eliskases, Stahlberg, Pilnik, and Argentine born Ju. Bolbochán, Guimard, Rossetto, Sanguineti.
