El Che en Colonia

Also in Cologne, not so far away from the Grünfeld pub, there is a tobacconist who sells Cuban habanos. We have already talked about Cuba in Chess Images, when we received the visit of Fidel Castro.

In this German tobacco shop we found his revolutionary colleague Ernesto "Che" Guevara, also a chess fan. In front of his image, a chess set, including what I would call "Napoleonic" chessmen.

Allons enfants de la patrie, hasta la victoria siempre.
