Includes index of composers.<br /><br />Help mate chess is a form of problem chess in which the two sides White and Black collaborate to demonstrate a result such as mate or stalemate. In one respect it is the most nearly mathematical form of the chess moves for its essence is always the pure demonstration of a possibility. All idea of combat is eliminated and combat has nothing whatever to do with mathematics. Imagine a demonstration in Euclid in which every second step of the reasoning was in endeavor to thwart the step preceding! From another angle it may be argued that the Helpmate is a logical form of problem. For any chess problem is assumed to be a position which might have arisen in actual play no matter how absurd the antecedent sequence of moves. In other words the initial position of any orthodox chess problem may be considered as having been developed during a game conducted by Help-play.<br /><br /><b>Condition:</b><br /><br />Corners bumped and lightly rubbed.
