'A Clock Without Hands'
A week ago, in Fischer Busted (November 2022), I promised, 'We're nearing the end of this blog's 'Fischer Friday' series'. I'll end the series with a post on 1975 Fischer forfeits to Karpov (m-w.com). The drawing below -- by artist Greg Spalenka -- is from the 29 July 1985 issue of Sports Illustrated (SI). See the post Fischer: 'I'm not seeing people' (June 2017; '1985-07-29: Bobby Fischer') for a link.
SI caption:
'Karpov's futile wait for Fischer is symbolized by the clock without hands.'
