Mikhail Tal had 3 fingers

Streptomicin · 2010-02-27T13:53:36-08:00

I just recently found out that Tal had the congenital deformity of ectrodactyly in his right hand or “Lobster-Claw Syndrome”. That is, he had only 3 fingers on his right hand. Does anyone else know of any other "landmarks" about famous GM's?
