SATURDAY 29 AUGUST | |||
1970 241st day - 124 days to come | |||
---- | |||
Brought a copy of <u>FOCUS</u> to office for "Al," to give to his | |||
nephew. (Earlier in week Al brought back the copy of | |||
<u>''AGOG''</u> he gave to his nephew for me to autograph.) | |||
Took the 26 storage boxes back from the office. Had to | |||
make two trips, giving the porter $1 to watch them | |||
while I made the first trip. | |||
Gave "Walt Adamski" and "Al Costeles" the two copies of | |||
<u>SNAFU</u> "Renwal" gave me Thursday. | |||
Looked at the rules of my games preparatory to | |||
demonstrating them at "Hallmark" Gallery. Did some | |||
fixing of the typos in the <u>COMBINATION</u> column, tho | |||
BB did most of this. Put red checks next to my | |||
games on the "3M," "Stancraft," and "Renwal" brochures, | |||
some of them that is. | |||
Rcd. Sept. <u>''PANZERFAUST''</u>. Had a complete game by Chris Johnson | |||
- <u>POLTAWA</u>. | |||
In looking at the rules for <u>VENTURE</u> saw that in the | |||
new Gamette version they have eliminated scoring for | |||
cards remaining in hand at end. The new rule-score | |||
the same as for a profit card at the end. | |||
BB bought me four boxes of polished stones in a Japanese | |||
import store - 2 of large stones & 2 of small. | |||
---- | |||
(cont. from 8/30) [9/1] | |||
Rcd. the Sept.-Oct. 1970 <u>''IDEAS NEWSLETTER''</u>. | |||
Rcd. a card from <u>Mike Abrams</u>. <u>SUCCESSION</u> will be out | |||
in March 1971, put out by <u>Dr. R. Garry Shirts</u> of "Similie II." He | |||
is also trying to get it, put out by "ABALGA" in Sweden. | |||
He sees "Nothing but positive Reviews on your book (<u>''AGOG''</u>). | |||
Sent a letter to <u>Jim Kraus</u> with my ideas on the rare | |||
stone theme. Also suggesting <u>SOLUTION</u> or <u>SLEUTH</u> as names | |||
to replace <u>SEARCH</u>. | |||
When I spoke to Bob Edwards he didn't say anything about my | |||
coming to Kansas City, so I didn't either. (This happened, | |||
or rather didn't happen, yesterday.) | |||
