May-21-12    SBC: . I can't believe that these two are the only games by FE Brenzinger of the Brooklyn Chess Club posted here. May-21-12    ForeverYoung: Anybody out there care to elucidate who Brenzinger was? May-23-12    SBC: . A crony of Myron Hazelton, James Mason, Eugene Delmar, Charles Gilberg, Max and Morris Judd, Capt. Mackenzie and other well known players, a member of the Brooklyn Chess Club (as well as the Staten Island and Paulsen Clubs) and one of the stronger American players in his day (b. 1835; d. 1910). There are 175 games of Delmar here, but 2 of Brenzinger who seems to have been a stronger player. He was also a problemist and a multi-board blindfold player. May-23-12    SBC: . Should be Miron, not Myron. May-29-12    SBC: . Some games of F.E. Brenzinger - http://blog.chess.com/batgirl/all-a... May-06-13    Graham1973: After a long absence I've uploaded only remaining Correspondence Game posted on Chess Notes. Game ends before resolution with a note that White has five moves before achieving check-mate. Dec-13-13    Phony Benoni: JI've been going through some old issues of the "New York Times", and just found a Brenzigner win from the Brooklyn Chess Club Tournament of 1869 over, of all people, Eugene Delmar. Will submit. Heroic game.
