HAVANA 1966 CHESS OLYMPIAD VIDEOS

Hi everybody, can anyone submit links to videos showing the 17 th chess olympiad in Havana Cuba in 1966?

The story of this olympiad worth to be told. The event took place in very bizzare cold war atmosphere: the special authorization given to Bobby Fisher in order to enter Cuba; the participation of Fidel Castro and his very good results...

Tal vez amigos desde Cuba tendrian algo que ensenarnos...

Chessgames.com kibbitzing is where I would look for stuff like that. You've probably already checked Olimpbase.org and Archive.org. Post if you find any, I'd like to see those.

Right, i had a glimpse to those. Unfortunately nothing to mention in relation with chessgames.com neither Archive.org.

I hope some reader of this forum will come with something new..

Here are some pics of the event....waiting for the videos you'll find pals!
