  MissScarlett: What more is known about Otto's biography? I can't believe those methodical Germans have researched Klaus's career without delving into that of his father.

  Tabanus: The information is probably hidden in a dead serious non-online German history journal.

  MissScarlett: C.N. 2090 (reproduced in Winter's <Kings, Commoners and Knaves>, p.30) gave this position as <N.N. - Otto Junge, Concepcion (Chile), 1909(?)> (so very likely our man):

The source is <Deutsches Wochenschach>, February 27th 1910, p.81.

Black to play and win.

Would be nice to go upstream on the source to the <D. Schachblatter> reference.
