SATURDAY 14 FEBRUARY 1970
St. Valentine's Day
45th day - 320 days to come
Rcd. a bill from Rizotti Rizzoli for GIOCHI DI CARTE - VOLUME SECONDO. I sent a check on 2/8. (Discarded.)
Played PE-LING with BB, after fixing the summary cards
to agree with the new deck. Worked good. Looked at the
rules I wrote for U.S. Playing Card and they are in good shape.
Spent a good part of day catching up on game diary.
Called Claude. He'll come here Thursday evening.
The puzzle outfit that put out his three puzzles is interested
in WATCH. The puzzle about placing the pcs. so
that no two are on a line is doing better than the other two.
They are not interested in GENIUS BLOCKS because they are
not set up to mount numbers on the plastic cubes.
He picked up a number of games and puzzles for 15 [cents]
each at the Pushcart. They are put out by Creston Industries.
AZTEC : - A puzzle consisting of 12 figures constructed
of 6 equilateral [triangles].
BAFFLER : - 12 pcs. to be put together into a cube. Similar
to SOMA.
SIDE-WHEELER : - A sliding block puzzle.
There is also a puzzle with PENTOMINOES which Claude
didn't buy.
I asked him to but me several of each, but one
of the game, if they are still available.
