Ross' Caricatures

Source: Chess Review, March 1965, p. 81

We have noted in this blog Ross' caricature of Itzchak Aloni. Now, Mr. Herbert Halsegger notifies us that the caricature, together with those of many other masters - see list in the bottom of the post under "תוויות" (subjects) - are found in a Chess Review article of the 1964 olympiad, March 1965, pp. 78-81. Two are given above; the rest can be found in the article itself. In particular, there are caricatures of the entire USSR team. 

P.S.

Trying to find more information about Ross, I googled in Hebrew "רוס מאייר" - "Ross illustrator." As it happens, this is the way you spell in Hebrew the independent (if that is quite the word) film maker Russ Meyer, which google gave me a lot of, how shall we say, educational information about (link goes to Wikipedia's biography of him).
