Die Mattchancen aus dem Plural des Drohspiels virtuell wiederholen sich step by step im Singular reell. Beides zusammen: ein feiner Circum-Fleck des Hamburger Thema-Spezialisten (FH). Direkte Entfesselung der wD erweist sich als zu grob, doch nach dezentem Vorgehen wird diese doch (indirekt) entfesselt, wonach die Drohmatts der Verführung einzeln doch verwirklicht werden. Gut konstruiert und originell (MOe). Good change of play: Fleck theme in the try with separation of mates, and reappearance of these after of the wQ unpinned in the solution (EP). Überraschender und schwieriger Schlüssel (EG).

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)

BS Problemid: 34265
Authors: Grupen, A
Sources:
Years: 1928
TODO: Quelle prüfen - weder bei visueller Prüfung noch im Schwalbe-Index für die Jahre 1928-1930 konnte die Aufgabe gefunden werden.

Das Rätsel ist gelöst: Die Aufgabe erschien nicht in der Schwalbe im Jahr 1928, sondern in einem Sonderheft der Schwalbe am 06.07.1965 als Widmungsaufgabe von AG zum 70. Geburtstag von Dr. Wilhelm Massmann mit der Problemnummer(!) 1928. Den Abdruck dieser Aufgabe fand Carsten Ehlers.

Die Quelldaten in der PDB sind nun richtiggestellt worden.
