Harold Vanderbilt and the Vanderbilt Club convention
Harold S. Mike Vanderbilt helped introduce the Vanderbilt Club convention in 1925, shaping early contract bridge strategies. The piece notes his simple yet effective play, the convention’s 34 percent opening, and the rise of Standard American by 1930 amid club-world improvements. Also mentioned are Kodak workers submitting 94,271 ideas with $3 million in awards and a few top prizes.
