Most (ab)used problem chess books


My "Morse" looks like as it had been read by a horde of elephants :-)
(Praise the day when the electronic version is out...)
What is your book with most reading damage?

The Babson essay I bought has interesting doodles on the blank pages.

Velimirovic & Valtonen: Encyclopedia of Chess Problems
Not really damaged, but you can see that it has been used. (Edit: That's the one with the most "reading damage" I caused myself, there are other books in worse shape on my shelf.^^)

The binding of my well-thumbed copy of "Eigenartige Schachprobleme" is completely disintegrating, and the pages look as if I have been regularly reading it in the shower. What a great book!

I have thumbed through my "Chess by Milan" so well that it's binding is damaged now. Luckily I got another copy for a bargain. Wonderful book!
