Chess Notes was a chess magazine for chess historians.

Chess Notes appeared between January 1982 and December 1989 eight times. Publisher was Edward winters. In altogether 1933 small articles ("notes") chess historians discussed different topics from chess history. Much importance was attached on source data, so that these articles had a quite scientific character.

The discussed topics were far varied. Thus one looked for missing person portions of old chess masters, asked for of them used and to acquaintance out and pointed old literature places, in which chess was mentioned. In addition the magazine (usually very critical) contained reviews of newer chess literature.
