In the past , I have refrained from posting in CCC the commercial products that I have occasionally auctioned in eBay. The auction below is not for a commercial product but for an original, authentic program (19 page booklet) from the historical first encounter of World Champion Garry Kasparov and the premier of IBM's Deep Blue held in Philadelphia, PA in February 1996. I attended the final and 6th game won by Kasparov. I would guesstimate that maybe 500-700 people attended this game live. Everyone who bought a ticket received a program. At the end of the match, a few people left their "free" programs behind. Yours truly picked a up a few of these and maintained them in their prisitine condition. I have decided to sell one at this point in time - really just to see what kind of interest is there in "chess computer memorabilia". I have no plans to sell the others. By the way, the world "premier" is on the cover for those of you who are wondering why I used that specific word. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1789361572&rd=1 Thanks for looking and good luck if you decide to bid.
