Jewish chess masters on stamps

"Both chess and Judaica are popular topics for stamp collectors. Here is a work that combines the two topics into one beautiful collection: the world of Jewish chess champions, their tournaments and their triumphs, as depicted on postage stamps from around the world.". "Both men's and women's champions are represented, along with many positions from their games. Chess fans will especially appreciate the annotations of games depicted on stamps - as well as comments on positions that were never played (except in the minds of stamp artists)." "Chess stamps from the state of Israel are also covered, and a chapter on the "Jewish chess phenomenon" rounds out the work. Full-color illustrations of most stamps are included."--BOOK JACKET.
