In <u>LA REVUE DU JOUET</u> saw the following which either I didn't ask Pierre | |||
for or he didn't get: - <br> | |||
<u>FACE A FACE</u> - 5 sliding strips are mounted in a frame so <br> | |||
that 5 pictures on each show at one time. Players in turn move <br> | |||
a strip trying to line up 5 of their pictures in a vertical <br> | |||
or diagonal line. Half of the pictures show a number <br> | |||
or different boys; The other half a number of different girls. <br> | |||
(Rough idea of a children's game) <br> | |||
<u>DIAMINO POKER</u> - Five cubes with letters and numbers <br> | |||
on the faces (i.e. - E-1, K-8). In three throws get longest <br> | |||
word and highest total. (No further details.) [May '71 issue.] [preceding square bracketed item and others like it below were included in original document] <br> | |||
<u>LE MONDE DES AFFAIRES</u> (Mallory -John Laurent). Investment game <br> | |||
(looks interesting). [May '71 issue] <br> | |||
<u>LE CROISILLON</u> (Editions d'Alleyrac) Diagramless X-word puzzle <br> | |||
with plastic letters and black spaces. [May '71 issue.] <br> | |||
<u>BOUM</u> - Word game with Board [Jan. '70 issue] <br> | |||
<u>LES CHERCHEURS</u> (ENATA Editions - 93 Rue La- <br> | |||
fayette-Paris -10c). (Pretty sure this is the same game I got | |||
later in Germany with name <u>GOLDGRÄBER</u> or <u>CHERCHEUR D'OR</u> | |||
