The great Garry Kasparov playing chess simuls in Alcoy (Spain) on February 1, 1986, less than 3 months after becoming World Champion. I was there. Do you remember Kasparov?

Nice pic, classic local photog focusing on the audience and not on Garry ;-) I don't think many of the 32 games from this one are out there. El Pais had it at 25 wins, 6 draws, 1 loss to "local youth Chimo Corbi."
