Called <u>Claude</u>. | Called <u>Claude</u>. (Friday <u>Felicia</u> told me that he had been trying to <br> | ||
contact her - without success.) Claude wanted to know what <br> | |||
he should work on. I told him to check on that with Felicia <br> | |||
after Stationery Show. If he has anything that Hallmark <br> | |||
might like he should bring it to her. <br> | |||
He wondered about his old game <u>SUSPENSE</u> and I said why <br> | |||
not try it. <br> | |||
<u>Felicia</u> wanted him to take a color picture of his action game <br> | |||
<u>SAMMY THE SWINGING DRAGON</u> so that she doesn't have to send the <br> | |||
model. He thinks she should do it for her fee. <br> | |||
We talked about making <u>LOA</u>, with the 2-hand version, look different. <br> | |||
I suggested using circles with lines connecting them and <br> | |||
leaving out the 4 corner spaces. | |||

and <u>TOTALLY--</u> will be in the "first wave". <u>PLANES</u> will definitely <br> | |||
be coming out; <u>WINDOW PLANES</u> will be returned to me; <br> | |||
<u>THE RIGHT CONNECTIONS</u> - Bob is testing it out now. <br> | |||
Their plans at present are to come out with about 12 games at the <br> | |||
end of this year and test market them. <br> | |||
Rode to the stationery Show in Bob's taxi. <br> | |||
To 3M. Showed <u>Jim Kraus</u> <u>SKYSCRAPERS</u> and he liked it. The 9 molds <br> | |||
might be a problem in initial costs. Showed him <u>TORUS</u> in the <br> | |||
Mag-Nif folder and he said there was no problem there. <br> | |||
Asked him if I could pick up some extra copies of <u>SLEUTH</u> at the end <br> | |||
of the show. He told me to take one and then I can get more on <br> | |||
Thursday. He also said he'd send me a case of 3. <br> | |||
He'll check on <u>FOREIGN INTRIGUE</u> when he gets back. I asked and he <br> | |||
doesn't know of any plans for <u>BAZAAR</u>. <br> | |||
To Stancraft but <u>Norton Cross</u> not there. <br> | |||
To Lenorka. Left the copies of ''<u>GAMES & PUZZLES</u>'' with <u>Ellen Wood</u> to <br> | |||
look at while I went to next booth. <br> | |||
To Midwest and gave <u>David Zea</u> a copy of ''<u>S & T</u>'' (#29 I believe). <br> | |||
He wants to subscribe. Gave him my card so he can keep in touch. <br> | |||
