L.A. Times Problem No. 166. This neat miniature by Dr. Galitsky (Blumenthal's Schachminiaturen, 1903) originally had White K on K8. Later (May 1925) F. Bennett of Queensland in the Australian is credited by the British Chess Magazine with “Problem Twins” showing position below, a three-mover no matter which way the pawns are going—two distinct problems: so Bennett is composer of reverse position only. White mates in three.
