Description:

One sheet with the letterhead of the Preparatory Committee of the 29th Chess Olympiad 1990 in Novi Sad, with a typewritten note "Ucesnici Turnira 'Bugojno '86", names of the participants and with 7 autograph signatures of participants in the tournament. Royal octavo (9 3/4" x 8 1/4") single sheet. Signed by Anatoly Karpov, Boris Spassky, German grandmaster Artur Yusupov, Russian-French grandmaster Andrei Sokolow, Dutch grandmaster Timman, English grandmaster Tony Miles (1955 - 2001) and the Yugoslav-Serbian grandmaster Ljubomir Ljubojevic.

The strongest tournament held between 1986 and 1987 was Bugojno 1986. This was a Class 12 tournament, including six of the top ten players in the world (from the May 1986 rating list). The next-strongest tournaments were Tilburg 1986 (Class 11) and Vienna (Open) 1986 (Class 9). The 5th International Bugojno Chess Tournament held in Yugoslavia in 1986 was the first category XVI event ever held. Eight top grandmasters were invited to participate in the double round robin. They were (in order of ELO): Anatoli Karpov (2700), Jan Timman (2645), Artur Yusupov (2645), Anthony Miles (2610), Lajos Portisch (2610), Boris Spassky (2610), Ljubomir Ljubojevic (2605), and Andrei Sokolov (2595). Karpov won once again, but Andrei Sokolov also made a terrific showing going undefeated and dealing Karpov his only loss in the tournament.
