On Tuesday, <u>Felicia</u> had mentioned quickly that <u>Harry Gardner</u> (Gold Medal Books, see 7/8/71) was interested in my <br> | |||
doing a book. I asked her about it and she said that it <br> | |||
is a book on things that can keep children interested. <br> | |||
Much less highbrow than <u>''AGOG''</u>. But she'll check further <br> | |||
with him. I also mentioned my contractual obligations with <br> | |||
Random House, but I think we can get around these. <br> | |||
<u>Felicia</u> showed me a letter from <u>Norton Cross</u> of Stancraft. He <br> | |||
was interested in <u>Flach</u>'s <u>WINDOWS</u> and suggested some <br> | |||
modifications. He said that they would be promoting their <br> | |||
new card games together with their regular card line <br> | |||
and there will be a lot of promotion. But talking to her in <br> | |||
person he let her know that he wasn't at all sure that he'd <br> | |||
be able to straighten Stancraft out. <br> | |||
Took <u>AIRLINE</u> from <u>Felicia</u>. She agreed that it had been everywhere. <br> | |||
At Arco looked at a hard-cover book ''<u>ANTIQUE TOYS AND THEIR BACKGROUND</u>. <br> | |||
Fairly good history of various toys, novelties, and games. <br> | |||
Many Illustrations. $20. <br> | |||
Rcd. a letter (addressed to Castle Books - Random House, New York and <br> | |||
resent it to me by Random House) asking about <u>ULTIMA</u> and <br> | |||
where to get <u>ABBOTT'S NEW CARD GAMES</u>. <br> | |||
Stopped at Skunk Works. Got business cards with me as "Associate <br> | |||
Editor", some stationery, and copy of ''<u>MOVES</u>'' #2. <br> | |||
Saw <u>Phil</u>. Nothing new from <u>Bill Knox</u> on <u>GROOVE</u>, etc. | |||
