Test your chess: Reitstein problem 198: further comment
Reitstein says that today's puzzle is the conclusion of 'one of the great games of South African chess'.
Alas, I have been unable to find the game: it is is not in Megabase 2012, nor is it in chessgames.com. From that latter site I learn that white was Moss Kolnik, black Kurt Dreyer. I also have a copy of Leonard Reitstein's book on the history of chess in South Africa, which Leonard gave me in 2006 after I wrote to him, having visited and fallen in love with his country. The game is not in Leonard's book, either.
I wonder if anyone has the game? Would be nice if it could be found and preserved for posterity.
