American Checker Association · 1915 · Kansas City, Mo. : E.H. Greene · 6 pictures

A 1915 checkers tournament booklet published in Kansas City, Missouri, by E.H. Greene for the American Checker Association, documenting the Third American tourney held in Chicago for the national championship and prize money. The pictures are plain diagrams of 8x8 checker boards with black and white pieces in endgame positions, each captioned with a puzzle prompt such as White to play and win, so a designer could draw on their clean grid layouts, high-contrast piece graphics and alternating dark and light square patterns.
