This image was taken for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 11 December 1962, "Mr and Mrs H. I. Christensen, 50 years married today, in their charming sun lounge, proudly displayed two cherished chess trophies. The one on the left of their chess table was won in 1926[?] by Mr Christensen as junior champion, and the other last year reserve champion for 1962. Both retain an intense interest in the Palmerston North Chess Club, which Mr Christensen pioneered."
