An enjoyable as well as nostalgic piece of Australian chess history was published (10/06/2020)
on Facebook by Mr. Ralph Jackson, reproducing a post by GM Murray Chandler. (*) on the same media the previous day.

Apart from its historic significance the article has attracted various responses, memories and/or just kibitzing
from participants as well a members of the general public who of course asked for more of the kind.
My favourite post is FM_Bill's (FM William Jordan) ranting "I would have played but my parents wouldn't let me"! :D
(*) GM Chandler lives now permanently in NZ and he often publishes chess results from the yester year complete with scoresheets
and other interesting and useful information! He is a significant proponent of the sport in the neighbouring country!
