World's Most Famous Chess Games

There are also famous games that come with a story that don't
have a name, but should. Perhaps you should take it on yourself
to supply the appropriate title. One that comes to mind is the
miniature that Ed. Lasker played against Thomas in London,
1912, when he was straight off the boat and knew only enough
English to ask where the chess club was. The Immortal King
March Game? Lasker's Gem?
