Feb-17-04  Whitehat1963: Why is this over?
Feb-17-04  WMD: Skinner & Verhoeven to the rescue again. First of all, the opponent's name is Magnusson. The game was one of 40 played in a simultaneous display in the Stockholm Town Hall. The quality of opposition must have been high, for Alekhine scored +29 =4 -7.

Move 28 for White was Bd2 not h3; the rest of the moves are correct, albeit incomplete. White resigned after Black's 48th move.

From what sources does chessgames get its information?

Oct-11-04  Swindler: The full notation for this game (and the rest of the games in the simul) can be found at this website: http://www.jora.info/essayer/aljech... . The notation is in Swedish though.

It was indeed strong opposition, some of Swedens finest chessplayers participated.
