as <u>ACQUIRE</u>, etc. He is an ardent collector and Jim thinks I <br> | |||
ought to get in touch with him. Or he will have Campion <br> | |||
write to me (he is somewhere in the mid-west). <br> | |||
We called <u>Phil Orbanes</u> and both spoke to him. He was just ready <br> | |||
to give his notice to <u>Reiss</u> when he was given some game <br> | |||
development assignments, particularly a <u>TAROT</u> game to replace <br> | |||
the one that had been supplied by the girls on the west coast. <br> | |||
Jim and he thought that he should try to arrange to work <br> | |||
part time for Reiss on the developing, but give up the office <br> | |||
management, and also work part time for ''<u>S & T</u>''. <br> | |||
I asked about <u>Bill Knox</u> and <u>GROOVE</u>. Phil said that when Bill gets <br> | |||
involved in getting a project ready he forgets everything else. <br> | |||
Phil is sure that once the production problems are licked we will <br> | |||
get the contract. <br> | |||
Phil has pretty much gotten <u>Bob Hallowell</u> interested in doing a <br> | |||
line of board games. <u>INFINITY</u> is one he'd like and as soon as <br> | |||
it materializes Phil and I will work on it. <br> | |||
I suggested <u>FREE FORM</u>, but Phil said that <u>Manny Lefkowitz</u> <br> | |||
was still very interested in it. <u>SPACE STIX</u> is also still alive <br> | |||
with Hoi Poloi. <br> | |||
Phil and I talked about <u>Carl Eisenberg</u> and we both knew pretty <br> | |||
much the whole story. Phil's impression on Stancraft <br> | |||
was that someone there wants Carl to really put the game line <br> | |||
on its feet. Phil is damaged with the loss of royalties <br> | |||
on <u>AQUARIUS 2000</u>. His game <u>PRIX</u> will also be held up. <br> | |||
Phil will show <u>HABITAT</u> and <u>HONORABLE RELATIONS</u> to Bill Knox, <br> | |||
next time he is in town. <br> | |||
Phil thought that the package of pencil & paper games with <br> | |||
<u>Bob Hallowell</u> would be a good seller. <br> | |||
Jim brought a copy of ''<u>AGOG</u>'' for me to sign for his aunt. I also <br> | |||
gave him a copy for himself. |
