Fischer, Tal, Larsen and other top players competed in the 1959 Zurich International Tournament. The tournament book, by second place finisher David Bronstein, can lay claim to be the best tournament book ever written. The 1953 Zurich International Chess Tournament was won by Smyslov over a field of 15 of the best players of that era. In 1934 Alekhine took first in a strong field of 16 that included Emanuel Lasker, Euwe, Flohr, Nimzovitch, Berstein and Bogoljubov. The Zurich fonts are named after Zurich, Switzerland the site of at least three great international chess tournaments. It is common practice to name a font after a city or place.
