Default Photographs from NY27 - help needed

Hello everybody,
we are about to publish an Italian translation of Alekhine's New York
1927 tournament book. We have been looking for photographs from that
event but found very few (just two actually, kindly donated by the
Marshall Chess Club in New York).

I was wondering if anyone from the international chess community could
provide us with some interesting material from that tournament or
suggest a good source?

Any help will be appreciated and expenses refunded.

Yuri Garrett

Default Photographs from NY27 - help needed

I have a short page about the 1927 New York tournment on my website
at:

http://www.rookhouse.com/events/ny1927.html

I also have the PGN file for all of the games from that tournament.
The only group picture that I have is not of the best quality (which
is why I didn't post it).

If you want the picture or the PGN file, just give me your e-mail
address and I will be glad to sent them to you.

Thank you very much for this piece of information. however it is not the
chess games or the tables we are missing but rather the photographs,
which are rather difficult to find...

I will be very happy to look at your photograph (I understand it will
not be possibile to publish it, but it is a start at least). You can
email me at .

Thank you again for trying to help. Anyone else got some information?
