im Diagramm sDe4, laut StK aber sK, in der wiederum fehlt der im Dia vorhandene sTe3

"Problem in honor of E.Lasker"
Der 'New York Recorder' scherzhaft über dem Diagramm: "A few minutes after the Lasker - Gossip game was over (International Chess Congress New York 30.09.1893-17.10.1893) the chess men on their table became strangely disarranged. Gradually they began to take the shape of Emanuel Lasker's initials, and finally a neat two-mover came into existence. It was noticed tha Mr. Loyd was suspiciously hovering around that table. When asked, however, he denied the authorship. But something like a wink of the other eye betrayed him."

Unter dem Diagramm stellt der 'New York Recorder' dann klar: "Mr. Loyd composed the above problem in a very few minutes by special request of and for publication in 'The Recorder'."

play all play one stop play next play all
Unique set play retro try in the retro twin s). 1.Kc7 axb7 2.Kd8 b8=D#. Zero set play in b).
All pieces are necessary for soundness in at least one twin except for sBa4 ("the manager").
First publication had typo in stipulation
Henrik Juel: If you disregard retro considerations and blindly test with Popeye 4.61, you get lots of cooks in part a) and 1.Re7-c7 e6-e7 2.Kc6-d7 Ke4-d5 3.Kd7-c8 e7-e8=Q #
in part b) (2023-05-20)
Henrik Juel: Part b) is OK, because last move could be Kd4-e4, and a normal h#3 ensues
But in part a) White (not Black as intimated by the Keyword) has no last move, and the stipulation changes to h#2.5 with the solution 1...a6*b7 2.Kc6-c7 Ke4-d5 3.Kc7-d8 b7-b8=Q #
Nice symbol problem (2023-05-20)
