Frankenstein-Dracula Variation in the Vienna Game by Eric Schiller ISBN 13: 9780945470755

161 pages with diagrams. Octavo (8 1/2" x 5 1/4") bound in original publisher's pictorial wrappers. First edition. The Frankenstein–Dracula Variation is a chess opening for Black, usually considered a variation of the Vienna Game, beginning with the moves: 1. e4 e5 2. Nc3 Nf6 3. Bc4 Nxe4 or it can be reached by transposition from the Bishop's Opening: 2. Bc4 Nf6 3. Nc3 Nxe4. The opening involves many complications; however, with accurate play the opening is viable for both sides. The variation was given its name by Tim Harding in his 1976 book on the Vienna Game, in which he said that the bloodthirstiness of the character of play was such that "a game between Dracula and the Frankenstein Monster would not seem out of place." Condition: Fine.
