Breuer: Die erste Darstellung eines direkten Albinos, d.h. der Albino gibt selbst die Matts.
Das Thema ist ohne Schachschlüssel nicht darstellbar!

Breuer gibt als Quelle an: "Tour de Force sur l'Echiquier 1906".

'Kärtner VZ': "In Wien starb kürzlich im Alter von 81 Jahren der bekannte Altmeister der Problemkunst Otmar Nemo, der mit seinen geistreichen Schachkompositionen durch Jahrzehnte die Schachwelt entzückte und in Problemturnieren viele Preise gewann. Wir bringen heute einen seiner schönsten Dreizüger, der im Johann-Berger-Gedenkturnier 1936 in Wien mit dem ersten Preis ausgezeichnet wurde."
PR: "Reicher Inhalt, einheitliche Wirkung, da die Abspiele ungezwungenerweise fast alle auf schwarze Läuferzüge erfolgen, eleganter Aufbau, äußerste Ökonomie der Mittel und schöne Schlußstellungen zeichnen den ersten Preisträger aus."

athulin: While this problem won a prize, it was not the 1st prize, which went to the set by Finlinson. Instead it was a special prize for the best #2 of the tourney. (2021-07-28)

Urdruck-Jahr unklar. Die meisten Quellen (incl. 'Comoedia', '2345 Chess Problems' und vor allem 'Crumbs from the Chess-board by C.A.Gilberg himself!') geben "Danbury News 1881" als Originalquelle an. Das kann aber nicht stimmen, da bereits im 1878 erschienenen 'Chess Chips' [J.P. Taylor] nachgedruckt mit dem Vermerk "Prize for best two-mover, Danbury News"!
1866 stammt aus der PS+-DB (Ettl, id=46418).
A.Buchanan: The half-pinned bQ threatens to capture wRd1, and to check wK an unprovided check if wR shifts. Therefore, look for keys which protect wRd1. The "pins" targeting e6 are very suspicious, and suggest that wQ must move to allow bK to retreat there. Must be possible to extend this idea to 4 pinned pieces covering f5, although mating piece would have to be pawn. (2016-11-24)
athulin: The date of the tournament should be 1877 -- The first Danbury News Tourney (in distinction from their earlier buying problems) concerned problems sent in between August and September of 1877.
(See Hartford Times for the date 1887-08-02 at www.chessarch.com in the excavations section).

As only one prize was offered for #2 and one for #3, it may be clearer to describe the award as
'best #2' or 'prize #2', as the '1.' seems to suggests there may be additional prizes (2. 3., ... and so on) (2022-04-20)
athulin: Sorry ... See Hartford Times for the date *1877-08-02* ... (2022-04-20)

[AZW]: Der wS spielt nicht mit, er hat nur den Zweck, den sT zu verstellen.
1.Preis The Wanderer (Milwaukee) 1886; Einsendungsmotto: "Tit for Tat"

[BCM, 1886, S.70]: "The monthly column is an important feature in a new Illustrated Magazine entitled "The Wanderer," published at Milwaukee, price $1 a year, and devoted to the interests of the travelling public. The Chess contents are so thoroughly good in every way that we recommend our readers to write for a copy ..."

[ACM]: "A marked specialty of his work, which will serve as a faithful index of his style, is his constant predilection to elaborate the powers and functions of the pawn. This peculiarity, conjoined with an active use of the white king, can be traced through many of his finest problems. We will venture to illustrate with a few examples, commencing with the first prize winner of the Wanderer tourney, Milwaukee, 1887."

athulin: Again, to avoid confusion it may be better to state that
it was a prize shared with S. D. Sturgis, and T. Taverner (another
problem).

First publ. Chess Journal, i. 121 (Mar., 1889), p. 79, tourney prb. 79.

Two of the judges noted the similarity with Loyd's problem:
Carpenter considered it was legitimate, and gave it 1 pr, Elson
considered it based on Loyd's problem, and not entitled to any
award. (2022-05-31)

athulin: a) This problem won the *first* prize .
b) The tourney book reprints the problem *mirrored,*( i.e. with wKf8.
c) The tourney was a correction tourney, so this is a *correction* of a problem printed
in Chess Journal up to June 1871. Thus, Carpenter is not the sole author but unfortunately
the tourney book does not identify the original of which this is a correction. (I
suspect it might be a correction of E. H Courtenay's attempt at correcting Alexandre's #2 nr. 1,
but ... . Courtenay's problem is v. 2, i. 15 (May, 1871), p. 130, prb. 111. (2022-07-18)
