Chessays - LUCENA - A mystery after 500 years - by M.C. Romeo (4695 words) |
 | Lucena was one of Ricardo Calvo's favourite chess celebrities, and he devoted great interest and effort to researching his alleged life and work, from the day when he found a facsimile copy dated 1953. |
| Lucena makes no mention of his printers or printers, and only thanks to typographical research since the early 20th century is it now known that there were two, Lope Sanz and Leonard Hutz; the latter, because of his greater technical experience, must have been the typographer responsible for the firm newly founded in Salamanca. |
| Lucena is so sure of being identified as a highly reputed chess player that he does not bother to give his full name, but does give that of his father, a high dignitary at Court, ambassador, Council member and Protonotario, which is another credential in favour of the student-chessman of Salamanca. |
