Champion class group 11 started on February 15th, while group 23 started on May 15th. The tournament director was Mostert. The crosstables come from [1]. O’Kelly, in his collection of his best correspondence games ([2]), gives most of his games. It must be mentioned that he only gives the year(s) the games were played in and not the event. It seems almost certain, though, that they really were played in this tournament. ChessBase ([3]) gives two of Rompteau’s games, too.
Wanted
- Many first names.
- Most games.
