A company in California not currently in the game business <br> | |||
has commisioned her company to do 12 games to be <br> | |||
ready for the stationery show. She can't say their name. <br> | |||
She saw <u>Mary Hilt</u> at the show (where?) and bought a <br> | |||
copy of <u>TRANSFORMATION</u>. She also bought a number of <br> | |||
other games. // I told Gini that Stancraft's performance was dismal. <br> | |||
She is thinking of running game reviews in her <br> | |||
club newspaper and asked how to get copies of games. <br> | |||
Told her to contact the P.R. people. <br> | |||
Pressman doesn't have anything new in games this year <br> | |||

they have licensed <u>OH FUDGE</u> abroad. | |||
When I spoke to <u>Bob Gellman</u> he mentioned that <u>Gini</u> <br> | |||
had been there with a series of "talk" games. He <br> | |||
was interested in one but she wanted to place them <br> | |||
as a set. He said she was very nervous. <br> | |||
