James Mason is one of the most powerful match players in the world. Steinitz might beat him in a match, but his victory would not be a foregone conclusion. When challenged by Mason, the Austrian certainly shouted for the battle, but he turned away his face from the arena.

Showing his facility with lighter films, Mason earned a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination for his performance as ugly duckling Lynn Redgrave's older sugar daddy in the romantic comedy Georgy Girl (1966). Beginning a collaboration that would last until the end of his career, Mason followed that film with his first for director Sidney Lumet, playing a George Smiley-esque British spy in the exemplary John Le Carré adaptation The Deadly Affair (1967). Making the most of the actor's abilities, Lumet subsequently cast him as a 19th century Russian in his screen version of Chekhov's The Sea Gull in 1968, and called upon Mason when he needed a Catholic schoolteacher for his 1972 adaptation of Child's Play.

For special events, Mason had made, a new Confederate uniform tailored by M. C. Lilley and Company of Columbus, Ohio, to wear in the parades and for other special veteran's events. His old war uniform had long been destroyed by wear and tear, and like most Confederate soldiers, by the end of the war they wore a mixture of any clothing they could find. Both of the commemorative metals are ... displayed on the uniform.
