When I first started to learn chess I was introduced to the King's Gambit.
I do not recall ever playing it in a tournament or in college.
I still own a Batsford by Korchnoi on the subject.
Bronstein's 200 Open Games contained a few KG's.
What I am looking for beside Chessgames.com or Chesslive.de
is King Gambit sites. Even books.
Some of the sites:
5 annotated games on the KG by Jan van Reek.

In the summer of 1961, a new chess magazine, the "American
Chess Quarterly," began publication. Edited by Grandmaster
Larry Evans, it was "dedicated to the interests of the
professional chess player." The first issue contained an
article which not only put the magazine on the map, but which
became one of the most famous opening articles ever written.
Eighteen-year old U.S. Champion Bobby Fischer was smarting at
the recent defeat handed him by Boris Spassky at Mar Del Plata.
Bobby had played the Black side of the King's Gambit.
