Lost,unpublished Fischer game
I thought some of the forum readers might be interested in an article published in Chess Life Magazine regarding Bobby Fischer.While practically all of Bobby's game's have been published and analyzed,some have escaped and have been unpublished.The score sheet on the link below was found by Frank Brady stuffed at the bottom of a box.The game connected to the Chess Life link below is from 1957,after Fischer's game of the century,but prior to his GM status at age 15 and a half.Fischer was 14 with this unpublished draw against former world champion,GM Max Euwe.If you read the entire Chess Life article,it states that Bobby had a two game exhibition match with Euwe.The first game Bobby lost,and "burst out of the club in tears and ran to the subway".That particular score sheet was severely creased and damaged,unfortunately.Fischer lost the match as you will read.But you can at least check out a picture of the original score sheet and there is a algebraic board also set up so you can go through the game.I find this unpublished game and artical interesting.Wish I had the mangled scoresheet of Bobby's loss!

**Take note that you will have to scroll down that link page quite a bit to reach the beginning of the article.The headline is..."Fischer versus Euwe:An excerpt from endgame".
