Is this a record?

When I was young, I bought Informator 10.

One of my favourite chess books, as it had lots of diagrams and 841 games to play through.

Today, I finished the 63 combinations in the back of the book.

Is this a record for slow solving?

Vol 10 was 1970. 44 years. A tough one to beat.

BTW. Voted best game in Vol 10 was Larsen's win in Fischer - Larsen, Palma de Mallorca 1970.

Afraid I have to admit that the endgame puzzles in the Informators I have remain unsolved. Infact not even looked at.

Lots of Fischer games in volume 10. Really nice.

I normally get my Fischer games from 'My 60 memorable games.'

The early Informators are a genuine gold mine
