MONDAY 12 OCTOBER 1970
Columbus Discovered America 1492
285th day - 80 days to come
Wrote to Alan M. Taber (Toy Store in Atlantic City). "Elizabeth
Bonnay" (on MONAD with carbon to J. Kraus). Warren Buell.
BB typed the letters written Sunday & today, except the
ones to Don Miller & "Elizabeth Bonnay" - since she objected
to some things in these.
Received a copy of Pierre Berloquin's book, just out,
LE LIVRE DES JEUX. Apparently the name LUDIQUE
was scrapped.
It contains [illegible crossed out] LE MAT (MATE) and SIDOMINOS
(DOMINO BOARD GAME), both with mentions of me in the
introduction.
he includes two (that i noticed) of his own games:
LES TROIS DIMENSIONS & CONCORDE. He does not claim
their invention.
Called Jack Davis. Told him the details on
DAS GROSSE HAUS - UND FAMILIENBUCH DER SPIELE and
EUGEN OKER'S SPIELWISE. Also about gamettes and ACQUIRE
mention in Sept T & N. Also reminded him that Marvin Katz
would like a copy of ACQUIRE.
Jack suggested that I write to the two German authors
thanking them for mentioning ACQUIRE and telling
them about my other games.
(cont. from 10/13) [10/13]
Arthur called. Among other things, he said that
they got a few new letters on their new POWER,
as written up in PACE Magazine.
Claude called. Nothing specifically on games.
