Rcd. order envelope from A.H. for <u>ORIGINS OF WORLD WAR II</u>. <br> | Rcd. order envelope from A.H. for <u>ORIGINS OF WORLD WAR II</u>. <br> | ||
Also contained a listing of their "Games of Logic" Series. <br> | |||
Rcd. a postcard from <u>Ken Morgan</u>. <br> | |||
Rcd. an "air letter" from <u>Colin Haycraft</u>. He rcd. the copy <br> | |||
of <u>''AGOG''</u> and is now working on estimates. Will write soon. | |||
Called Felicia to tell her of <u>Bob Gellman</u>'s wanting to get together <br> | |||
with <u>Ruth Shaler</u> for a conference on the sights to use in <br> | |||
<u>JET HOLIDAY</u>. <u>Felicia</u> will try to contact Ruth and then call Bob. <br> | |||
Felicia has a letter from <u>Jim Kraus</u>. They are returning <br> | |||
<u>WILD WOOD PILE</u>. They were considering three puzzles that required <br> | |||
molds. They decided on one called <u>MASTER MAZE</u> as having more <br> | |||
appeal. If they could invest in 2 molds <u>WILD WOOD PILE</u> might well <br> | |||
be the 2nd. <u>MASTER MAZE</u> will be out about July 1st. <br> | |||
He can't give her any word about when they might be <br> | |||
wanting <u>TORTS - THE GAME OF LAWSUITS</u> since this line (family?) <br> | |||
is questionable. <br> | |||
<u>IMAGE</u> may be moved to the Bookshelf line. <br> | |||
<u>PROFIT</u> will not be coming out in the first quarter . They are <br> | |||
going to do some testing on merchandising the Gamette line, <br> | |||
and adding new games will have to wait on that. <br> | |||
<u>Felicia</u> thought that we might show <u>WILD WOOD PILE</u> to the Puzzle <br> | |||
Factory. Their game, <u>DICTIONARY GAME</u>, flopped but their <br> | |||
jigsaw puzzles are doing well. <br> | |||
Felicia has a letter from <u>Keith Tuggle</u>. They won't give any money <br> | |||
to inventors submitting "Mystery" or "Knowledge" games at <br> | |||
their invitation. Their view is that freelancers are always <br> | |||
speculating. <br> | |||
The games being applicable to from 4 to 10 players is a must. <br> | |||
He didn't send any further explanation of what is wanted <br> | |||
in the "Knowledge Game". <br> | |||
I told <u>Felicia</u> that I wasn't working on a "Knowledge" game but <br> | |||
that I had played my "Mystery" game at <u>Claude</u>'s and that it <br> | |||
worked very well. None of her other inventors are working on <br> | |||
a "Knowledge" game and <u>Lillian Voegelin</u> has not done much yet <br> | |||
on the "Mystery" game. <br> | |||
She rcd. a call from <u>Mary Hilt</u> when she wasn't in. She wondered <br> | |||
if she should call collect and I said "by all means". <br> | |||
Her boyfriend Claude's family played <u>SLEUTH</u> over the holidays <br> | |||
and liked it very much. Also <u>RPM</u>. <br> | |||
I asked, and she told me that she had rcd. a check for $100 from <br> | |||
Chuck Titus to handle <u>PSYCHE-PATHS</u>. He said that he had <br> | |||
been busy over the holidays and would be sending me the <br> | |||
information on the capital gains soon. | |||
<u>Bob Gellman</u> called. Martine Gilcrest now seems willing to <br>supply the slides for <u>JET HOLIDAY</u> at a nominal cost if an ad for her <br> | |||
slides is included. He wanted a listing of the cities and the <br> | |||
number of sights in each. <br> | |||
I asked him to call <u>Felicia</u> and let her know that he doesn't <br> | |||
