From the series »Rare and Unpublished Tournaments«
Introduction
The games of the following tournaments of 1923 have already been published: Amsterdam (in the Quarterly for Chess History), Berlin (Arbeiter), Carlsbad, Copenhagen (March), Frankfurt (German Championship), Hastings 1922/3*, Liverpool*, Maerisch-Ostrau, Margate*, Scheveningen, Trieste and Vienna (* indicates incomplete tournaments).
The three tournaments in this book are the remaining strang events of the year. The Belgian Championship is important for the standard of play which Colle and Koltanowski later achieved rather than for the standard they were playing at in 1923.
I am grateful to Henri Serruys of Antwerp for his assistance with the games of the Belgian Championship and to Eduardo Bauza Mercere of New York, for similar help with the Lake Hopatcong tournament.
