Biographical data
Name: Krejčík, Josef Emil  
   Also known as: Professor Krejcik
Born: 22 Jan. 1885
Died: 4 Jan. 1957
 
Notes:
Goldman gives birth year as 1857, surely an error. Di Felice has 'Krejcik, Jiri' in the Vienna Hauptturnier A in 1921, but this was Joseph Emil Krejčík, according to the Österreichische Schachrundschau of Jan. 1922 (pp.3-4).
