A.C.White: "LOYD lived up to his profession that others were welcome to reproduce and improve his themes better than some writers are wont to do.
There are dozens of instances on record where his problems closely anticipate later work by other composers, but I have seldom found that he made any objection thereto. On the whole I think he had a certain feeling of pride that others should follow in his footsteps twenty or fifty years after him. More than once I have shown him versions by distinguished modern composers, and he would laugh and say: " Has So-and-so really just published that ? Why, I made it when I was eighteen." It is impossible to refer to all these cases in such a book as this. No. 273 is a single striking instance among many, which I discussed at some length in the British Chess Magazine for February, 1910."

Jeder Bauernzug außer f5 sperrt die schwarze lange Schräge, wodurch die wD zum Angriff frei wird. Verblüffend einfach konstruiert.

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)

SP: Double Berger cutting point. The earliest source known to me
is the 1928 Idea a Ekonomie, where Palkoska quotes this as an
anticipation of Kraemer, D. Schachbl. 1925. However, I cannot
find this anywhere in the 1911 NP column. (2023-11-16)

Überbietung des Rekords von Robert Gavin Thomson, 'The Chess Amateur', 1911 (P1036680)
Dr. Heiko Voß (2012-9-2) verweist auf folgendes Vergleichsstück:

1. Sd4!

Taverner zitiert das Problem in seinem Buch 'Chess problems made easy', und schreibt es dort A. Mosely, Brisbane zu. Es scheint also eher unwahrscheinlich, daß er der Autor des von Heiko Voß zitierten Vergleichsstücks ist. (Allerdings hat Taverner durchaus auch in 'Pen & Pencil' publiziert, s. z.B. P1022452.)
