Synopsis of chess openings, a tabular analysis

Cook, William, d. 1917, Miller, Joseph W., 1838-1925 · 1884 · Cincinnati, R. Clarke & co. · 3 pictures

A chess opening analysis from 1884, compiled by William Cook and Joseph W. Miller and published in Cincinnati by R. Clarke & Co., aimed at chess players studying move sequences. The pictures are dense columns of numbered moves in tabular rows with notation like P-Q4 and Kt-KB3, set in plain black type on pale paper, which a designer might take as a model for structured, grid-based information layouts.
