During the 1972 match in Reykjavík, Bobby Fischer went to a tailor to buy two suits. In the shop, there was a photograph of Rudolph Valentino, the silent screen star. The moment was captured by Harry Benson, and the photo was published by The New York Times.

Found an old scoresheet from 2004. I was almost 13 when I played this game. Take one look at my rating and the quality of play, and anyone would think I was a talentless, hopeless cause.

Just because you aren't a GM at 13 does not mean you can't make it far in chess. Keep at it!
