Legacy
[edit]Tylkowski is probably best known for participation in the game Tylkowski – Wojciechowski, Poznań 1931 against Antoni Wojciechowski at Poznań 1931 in which Wojciechowski played his famous combination.[5][6][7] While the game is documented on many websites and is included in a well-known chess book (see references), there is some dispute regarding the moves in this game and whether it even occurred.[8][9][10]
