Editor: Aleksandar Matanovic - Condition: Like New.

Chess Informant - Šahovski Informator - was the “Chess players bible’ - for two decades prior to the emergence of computer databases, Chess Informant publications were the leading source of games and analysis for serious chess players.  Former world champion Garry Kasparov said "We are all children of Informant”.

The Chess Informant system of codes for the classification of chess openings, and its system of symbols have set the international standard for organising chess information and communicating this information across language barriers.  The system of codes is explained in ten languages on the front of each issue of Informant. Within each issue there are several hundred games or fragments of games from master players, that are in many cases annotated by the players themselves. A MUST FOR CHESS PLAYERS.
