30 Monday - July 1973
211th day - 154 days to come
Downtown. To Simulations to bring some clothes to Dale
Phil to give to Dale.
Beth gave me a letter from an inventor of a combination FOOTBALL,
BASEBALL, BASKETBALL, GOLF, ICE HOCKEY, SOCCER, TENNIS,
SNOW SKIING, SUBMARINE VS. DESTROYER, AFRICAN SAFARI,
21ST CENTURY SPACE JOURNEY, etc. He offers it for manufacture.
Took 4 copies of MOVES #9. Among other things gave "Errata
& Addenda" for the following games:- CENTURION, GRUNT, LOST BATTLES,
USN, COMBAT COMMAND, FLYING CIRCUS, BORODINO, WINTER WAR,
ARMAGEDDON, YEAR OF THE RAT, DESTRUCTION OF ARMY GROUP CENTER,
ARDENNES OFFENSIVE, RED STAR/WHITE STAR, SPITFIRE,
AMERICAN REVOLUTION, LEE MOVES NORTH (LEE AT GETTYSBURG...??).
Also took duplicate copies of Book I, Book II, Book III, and Book IV.
Phil gave me copies of two discontinued games, neither of
which (I believe) I had before: TACTICAL GAME 3 (Russia, 1944)
and 12 O'CLOCK HIGH (by Lou Zocchi).
To Mike Alber to pick up BILLIONAIRE, BOGGLE, FLUSTER, and
GRAPPLE. Mike told me of a children's game - DOG-GONE which
he thought highly of, and gave me a copy.
Asked for and rcd. [received] an 1973 catalog.
Mike is working on an update of their 75 YEARS OF FUN to
be called 90 YEARS OF FUN. He showed me a picture of one game
they will mention - THE DOCTORS AND THE QUACK, a card game
with a humorous theme.
He asked if I have a copy of their edition of SENET.
Yes. He wants to include it and they are not sure if they
have a copy. Three girls are now putting the archives in
order.
There will be a supper at the Four Seasons on 9/24 to
celebrate Parker's 90th anniversary. I am invited.
To Irvington House Shop to pick up the 16-drawer cabinet
Claude put a deposit on. In another store bought 6
ballpoint pens, blue on one end and red on the other. Found
a lot of pencils and erasers in one of the drawers of the
cabinet.
Rcd. [received] report and check for 2nd quarter 3M.
