This reminiscence reports on the life of the Go pioneer Felix Dueball. He lived mainly in Berlin from 1880 to 1970 and was one of the few European autodidacts in this field. He taught himself the game with the help of very little literature. Throughout his life, he endeavoured to spread the game of go. He intensively pursued contact with Japanese Go players in order to learn from them. He was soon recognised not only in Germany but also in Japan as the strongest European player. In 1930, he was invited to Japan for a year by Baron Okura. In Japan, he was called "Doitsu Honinbo" (German champion) and "Dr Dueball", although he never had this title. His popularity earned him many honours, including all six Dan diplomas and the Okura pin of the Nihon Ki-in, the Japanese Go Association, as well as a medal from the Japanese Emperor, the Tenno.
