Wrote to "Mrs. Frances Sheridan Goulart" (see 7/21) telling
her about <u>''THE FIRESIDE BOOK OF CARDS''</u> at "Biblio & Tannen."
Using the strips I started before switching to
the smaller <u>TANGLED WEB</u>, I finished up a new
model with a 6 x 6 field. The strips are as follows:
[Six horizontal strips each with 9 numbers, left to right.
Strip 1 [left to right]: 2, 1, 4, 1, 3, 3, 1, 2, 4
Strip 2 [left to right]: 1, 1, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 2
Strip 3 [left to right]: 1, 3, 4, 2, 3, 3, 1, 2, 4
Strip 4 [left to right]: 2, 4, 1, 2, 3, 2, 4, 2, 1
Strip 5 [left to right]: 2, 4, 3, 1, 4, 1, 3, 2, 4
Strip 6 [left to right]: 3, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 1, 4, 4.
Six vertical strips, each with 9 numbers, to to bottom.
Strip 1 [top to bottom]: 3, 2, 2, 1, 4, 3, 2, 1, 4
Strip 2 [top to bottom]: 2, 1, 3, 2, 4, 3, 1, 1, 4
Strip 3 [top to bottom]: 3, 2, 4, 3, 2, 3, 1, 4, 3
Strip 4 [top to bottom]: 1, 3, 4, 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 2
Strip 5 [top to bottom]: 4, 1, 2, 2, 1, 3, 4, 2, 4
Strip 6 [top to bottom]: 2, 1, 1, 4, 3, 2, 2, 4, 1.]

Looked at <u>SPECTRUM</u>. Packed it, <u>TOTALLY--</u>,
<u>IMPOSSIBLE</u>, as well as the sketches for <u>EXCALIBUR</u>
to bring to <u>Bob Hallowell</u> tomorrow.
Felicia called the contract and the checks ($187.50
for me and $62.50 for her) came for <u>ANOTHER</u>. Told her
I'd come there today.
Sept. 1970 <u>''NOST-ALGIA''</u> came.
To <u>Bob Hallowell</u>. He gave me a copy of <u>QUINTESSENCE</u>.
This is not selling too well. His others, <u>TRI-TAC-TOE</u>
and <u>MADMAZE</u> (see 5/17) are doing great. They will be
in the Sears catalog.
Showed him <u>EXCALIBUR</u>; he liked it.
THIS HAPPENED 9/14 [bracket drawn up to paragraph starting with "Felicia called the contract..."]

(cont. from 9/14) [9/14]
In the plant passed the place where <u>QUINTESSENCE</u> was be-
ing assembled. Asked for and received a box of colored
tiles and circles used for the puzzle.
Bob wanted to go to his designer to start discussing final
design but I said I should make a model first. Promised
it by next Monday.
Before in discussing terms Bob said he gives 5% pay-
able quarterly - within 45 days of the end of the quarter.
He would prefer not to give an advance, since he is short
of money. His expectation on the puzzle is sales
