  Phony Benoni: Definitely a case of sibling rivalry: A Sandrin vs P Le Cornu, 1949

  FSR: Yes, I noticed that too. Bizarre that the A. Sandrin brothers both managed to play f8(N)# at the U.S. Open in the late '40s-early '50s. I'm sure Chernev would have included that one in his "Wonders and Curiosities of Chess" if he'd noticed it.
