Aug-21-05  jenspetersson: Eric Arnlind (1922-1998)

Apart from the game against Euwe found by searching for "Eric Arnlind" another game can be found by searching only for "Arnlind".

Arnlind came second in the Swedish Chess Championship in 1961, but he was even stronger in correspondance chess.

He recieved the title of international correspondance master in 1959 and grandmaster 1968. During a period of thirty years (1955-1985!!!) Eric Arnlind was ranked among the five strongest correspondance chess players in the world.

Arnlinds homeclub was Kristallens SK in Stockholm. At their website Arnlind is portrayed at: http://www.kristallen.org/historia/...

Mar-14-09  WhiteRook48: who is this guy?
Mar-14-09  whiteshark: I first heard of Arnlind in this game: M Yudovich Sr. vs E Arnlind, 1974. In his annotations he wrote that he wanted to resign after move 25, but instead uncorked <25...Nhf5> after two weeks of hard analysis.
Mar-14-12  Oceanlake: Looks like an intelligent, nice man who was frail.
