Theme: showing an anticipatory white half-pin. Each of the two half-pinned pieces should become fully pinned in (at least) one mating position, whereas the other half-pinned piece must abandon the pin-line (and vice versa). "Anticipatory" means that the classical half-pin arrangement does not exist in the post key position. The half-pin arrangement should become evident at some later stage, either actually or virtually. Example A shows an actual half-pin arrangement to be seen after the 2nd black move; example B demonstrates a virtual arrangement, where one thematic white piece leaves the half-pin line before the half-pin arrangement is fully formed. C provides a further example.
Remark: the use of the black King in examples A and B as masking piece does not mean that other pieces are forbidden for the same purpose.
