[edit] Old talk

The original article under this title read, in full:

Baron Tassilo von Heydebrand und der Lasa (1818-1899), generally known as von der Lasa, was a leading Prussian chess master.

He travelled widely, and collected about all known chess books at the time to his chess library.

I consider that article a stub, although not so labeled, and have treated it accordingly.J S Ayer 21:21, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

In the course of tracking down the current location of the Lasa Chess Library I have found dozens of transcriptions of the previous state of this article on other websites. I wonder whether this will also be copied.J S Ayer 04:11, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

I have moved the Handbuch des Schachspiels description to it's own article, so I can link to it from other articles. Also I think it makes good sense to have it in it's own article, after all Von der Lasa isn't even the only author of the book. --CygnusPius 21:52, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
