Is there a special term for a proof game where all the units of one or both
sides are apparently in their game-array position? If not, who was the first
to show this so we can name it after them?
The earliest I can find is Michel Cailaud, Commend Andernach 1993
rsbqkbsr/ppp1pppp/8/8/8/8/PPPPPPPP/RSBQKB1R
after Black's 3rd, Andernach chess.

Any prior to this?

Rgds,
Peter.
