'DAZ'-Lösungsanalyse: "Den starken Drohungen des Schw. (Dxe8, Tb3-a3,h2-h1=D) kann Wß. nur durch starke Mattdrohungen begegnen. Als solche ergibt sich 1. Sd4-f5, was 2. Da1-h1+ und 2. Da1-a6 (--c6 oder b7) droht. Die stärkste Erwiderung ist natürlich Dh8xa1, worauf Sd7-f6 matt folgen könnte, wenn die D von der Deckung des Feldes f6 abgesperrt werden könnte. Das erreicht aber Wß. durch 2. c2-c4+, worauf Schw. b4xc3ep spielen muß und Sd7-f6 matt setzt. Nun hat Schw. gegen 2. Dh1+ auch die Verteidigung La7-g1, was auch die Fortsetzung 2. Da1-a6 (wegen Dh8-a1) ausschließt. Dann schließt aber Wß. durch 2. e2-e4+ f4xe3ep die L-Schräge und Sd7 gibt auf b6 matt. Nicht minder fesselnd gestaltet sich das Spiel, wenn Bd3 von einem T geschlagen wird: 1. ... Tb3xd3 2. c2-c4+ b4xc3ep 3. Da1-a2 matt und 1. ... Th3-d3 2. e2-e4+ f4xe3ep 3. Da1-h1 matt. In diesem Fall wird durch das erzwungene Kreuzen ['DAZ'-Sprechweise für "en passant-Schlagen"] der betr. T verhindert, zwischenzusetzen. Die Aufgabe, die also mittels des Kreuzens einmal die Sperrung zweier Schrägen, das anderemal die Sperrung einer seitlichen Turmreihe durchsetzt, ist ein Meisterwerk ersten Ranges."

'DAZ' gibt als Quelle "1. Preis Strategie-Turnier 1908" an.

Überbietung des Rekords von Robert Gavin Thomson, 'The Chess Amateur', 1911 (P1036680)

Dr. Heiko Voß (2012-9-2) verweist auf folgendes Vergleichsstück:
Vorgänger (?) durch:

Taverner, Thomas
Pen & Pencil 1899
1. Preis
kb8,da3,te8,ld3,lf8,sb3,sg4,bb5,be2,bf6
kd5,da1,tc4,le3,sc2,sf3,bc5, be5
#2 (10+8) C+
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.)
