  Does anybody know of an example of the **[Grimshaw-Theme](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grimshaw_(chess))** being used in a practical game?
  
  For the Nowotny there are several examples (e.g. [Navara-Dergatschova, Ordix, 2007](https://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1470666)) and for the Plachutta there is [Tarrasch vs. Allies (Naples, 1914)](https://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1378821), but I can't find any practical example of a genuine Grimshaw.
  
  Any ideas?
