To Pacific Games. Spoke to <u>Jerry Kale</u> about the game business in <br> | |||
general. The cost of materials is skyrocketing and he has a lot of <br> | |||
trouble finding substitutes. Most of his items are developed in <br> | |||
house but will look at other items. He prefers a "group" of items <br> | |||
rather than a single item. He brought up <u>Gini Scott</u> and the way <br> | |||
she goes from manufacturer to manufacturer peddling the same <br> | |||
wares. He thinks it better if a free-lance limits the number of <br> | |||
companies he works with. <br> | |||
Took a review copy of <u>DIMENSIONS</u>. He suggested <u>SPACE CHESS</u> <br> | |||
and told me it was different from the other 3-board <u>CHESS</u> <br> | |||
games. I took a copy. Also took acopy of <u>MAGNATRIX</u> which is <br> | |||
not a game but the kind of novelty he'd like to get more of. <br> | |||
He was interested and I promised to send him the address <br> | |||
of ''<u>GAMES & PUZZLES</u>'' Magazine. <br> | |||
He had a puzzle, <u>CHAOTIC CUBE</u>, which I remembered seeing <br> | |||
under another name. He didn't think so. Later found it in 1970 <br> | |||
diary under name <u>QUIXOTIC DICE QUBE PUZZLE</u>, put out by Pacific. | |||
Rcd. a letter from <u>Larry Blandin</u> who wrote tome at the <br> | |||
suggestion of <u>Al Nofi</u>. He sent me information concerning the <br> | |||
<u>INTERNATIONAL GAME SHOW</u> in Chicago on 7/22 and 7/23. <br> | |||
The I.F.W. and <u>DIPLOMACY</u> seem to have something to do with it. | |||
