Hi everyone, today I want to share an exquisite gem from la Habana, Cuba.
Table used by Master Capablanca signed in the middle of 1920 - 1930,
property of Dr Antonio Barreras from "Pinar del Rio", close friend and notary of Capablanca.
i attached differents letters from capablanca to Dr barreras,
the content of these letters are not strictly chess, but there are a lot of mentions.
the owner of this table have 17 letters in exellent conditions sended from capablanca to Dr
Barreras.
there's a lot of information about this, but i prefer start with this small part of content.
Restored, I think is a notable piece of collection,
if any are interested please let me know through inbox. best regards !!!!
