Vintage matte-finish 5.5 x 3.5 photo of the two chess players during a game at the 1934 World Championship, boldly signed in fountain pen by Alexander Alekhine and Efim Bogoljubow. In very good to fine condition, with silvering to the darker areas of the image.
Alexander Alekhine was a Russian and French chess grandmaster who became the fourth World Chess Champion and was known for his aggressive, tactical style. Efim Bogoljubow, originally from Russia and later a German citizen, was a strong grandmaster who twice challenged Alekhine for the World Chess Championship but lost both times (1929 and 1934). Their encounters were marked by Alekhine’s superior attacking play, which proved decisive in their title matches.
