ebenso wie Shinkmans fast identisches P1057647 Einsendung zum Centennial-Turnier 1876-1877
athulin: Actually, this is from the Cleveland Leader tourney, which closed (i.e. with last date for contributions) in Sept. 1876 for US participants. (Report was printed in Cleveland Sunday Morning Voice on 1877-11-18?) It was published under the motto "Just for Fun" as enigma "Tourney Problem 17" in Cleveland Leader on 1876-12-07? [? after dates because cutting book only has hand-written dates, and so risks inaccuracies].

The reference to the Centennial Tourney is incorrect, probably a misinterpretation of the current source reference. (2022-01-04)
Mario Richter: @anders: The reference to the Centennial Tourney comes from 'The Golden Argosy', p. 217:
"Both problems Nos. 291 [Shinkman's P1057647] and 291A [this problem, i.e Loyd's P1030677] were entered in the same tourney, in which Loyd's set won the second prize. ... No. 291A. S. Loyd. second Prize, Centennial ty., 1876-77" (2022-01-04)
SP: I can verify publication date of 7/xii/1876. Cleveland library has
cutting that includes printed date.
The source of the attribution error appears to be the Golden Argosy,
as Mario says. This is repeated by other sources such as Howard. (2023-06-01)
