Feb-26-18		zanzibar: OK, there wasn't any official tournament book, as far as I know. But Marco seems to have published all the games in WSZ (1904), and is, in a sense, the most authoritative source. But I found Schiffer's <Niva Suppl (1904) p473-4> column also published several of the games, and specifically this one - but with 38.Rxf7! instead of 38.Nxc6. I think 38.Rxf7! looks more likely, as it's the better move, and the more dramatic and thus, more likely to cause Black to realize the game is hopeless. Interesting case of who to follow, and how game scores from contemporaneous sources can differ.
