(Lusis: 2273) Originally published by Turnstile Press 1951. The 1951 World Chess Championship was between 39 year old defending champion Mikhail Botvinnik of the Soviet Un…ion and 27 year old challenger David Bronstein who was also the defending champion. The match was a best of 24 games. The first player to reach 12 1/2 points would be the winner. If the match ended in a 12-12 tie, then the defending champion (in this case Botvinnik) would retain the title. The match took place in Moscow. The first game was played on March 14th, 1951. The match ended on May 11th, 1951. After a draw in Game 24, the match was tied 12-12. Since the match was tied, the defending champion (Botvinnik in this case) retained his title. Condition: Very good to fine.
