V2012 Prelude to Armageddon - Raymond Keene - Chess DVD DVD Set of Two This product from Chess Baron: Review the run up to the titanic struggle between Kasparov and Karpov, with commentary by GM Raymond Keene. Before their titanic struggle began in late 1984 which resulted in no fewer than five world championship duels over almost seven years, Gary Kasparov and Anatoly Karpov both participated in key events in London. Kasparov had to overcome Viktor Korchnoi in order to challenge Karpov for the supreme title, while Karpov had to prove himself in a tournament of elite Grandmasters as the prelude to his title defence against the young genius from Baku. This DVD set includes coverage of the critical games as well as sensational archival footage of leading Grandmasters and champions, many of whom are no longer with us. There is fabulous archival footage of the greats such as Kasparov, Karpov, Smyslov, Ribli, Najdorf, Gligoric, Robert Byrne, Miles, Mestel, Speelman, Timman as well as additional commentary by Bob Wade.

ChessBaron Chess Set and Chess Computer Guiding Principles ChessBaron is genuinely committed to high quality hand carved chess sets and computer chess. Chess products like this, of this level of quality are becoming rarer and rarer in this commoditised world. It's just too tempting to give in to the short term desire for profit and so to skimp on materials to make the item less expensive, cutting this corner and shaving that edge. When our items are shown in future runs of antique roadshow, we intend to be still here, still around for your children and your grandchildren, serving them as we wish to serve you, with integrity, honesty and pride. Not just as buzzwords, but as the guiding principles of our name. We have our grandchildren to think of too.
