  Tabanus: Tidskrift för Schack, Sept 1982 p. 215, says Gunnar Johansson had no Elo but made a 1st IM norm at Lloyds Bank 1982. So I think White here must be Gunnar Johansson born in 1945. Swebase has Per Johansson (that's BS) and Lloyds Bank for this game, and Jan Johansson turned up in FIDE list in Jan 1985.

  perfidious: Sorting out the various Johanssons must be as mind-numbing as trying to suss out which Garcia played in which event has been in some instances, which of those bearing the surname Harnandez, or Fernandez vis-à-vis Fernandes, one I had fun with a while back.

  Retireborn: I'll see your Johanssons and Garcias and raise you the 50 Horvaths that Chessbase knows about :)

Indeed a mind-numbing and almost hopeless task. Respect to those who endeavour to persevere.

  Tabanus: Hi guys, it's not entirely hopeless (in this case), because most events involving Swedes are covered in Tidskrift för Schack. Then one can also compare with the Elo lists. But it takes time, there are also Olsson, Jansson, Andersson, Carlsson, etc., etc., these guys are frequently cheated on.
