In his review of a paper by \textit{T. M. Rassias}, A new inequality for complex-valued polynomial functions, Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 97, 296-298 (1986; Zbl 0593.30004)], \textit{D. Boyd} remarked that the inequality \[ \| fg\|\geq 2^{-(m+n)} \| f\| \| g\| \] for the maximum norm on the unit circle of complex polynomials \(f\), \(g\) of degree \(m\), \(n\) can be derived by means of an elegant method due to \textit{K. Mahler} [Lectures on transcendental numbers (1976; Zbl 0332.10019)]. In the present note (originally drafted as a somewhat extended manuscript) this inequality is obtained as a direct consequence of the maximum principle. The note was submitted in revised form in February 1984 (!), but no explanation or excuse for the delay is given. Professor Mohr died in 1989.
