Although they are often referred to under the title "Fairy Chess Review" the first two volumes (August 1930 to June 1936) in fact bore the title "The Problemist Fairy Chess Supplement". These were published by the British Chess Problem Society as an offshoot of their magazine '' The Problemist '' which began in 1926. The first two volumes were supported financially by the Falmouth businessman Charles Masson Fox who was also a problemist, but he died in 1936. From volume 3 onwards the FCR was independent of the BCPS, though most of its contributors were members. The editor from 1930 until August 1951 was Thomas Rayner Dawson who died in November that year. An "In Memoriam" issue was edited by C. E. Kemp in February 1952, and the magazine then continued under the editorship of Dennison Nixon from (April 1952 to April 1956) and C. E. Kemp (June 1956 to April 1958). |
