Mickie gave me the press release pictures and blurb for their '74 line, which I promised to keep confidential. New are: <u>KING OIL</u>, <u>PRIZE PROPERTY</u>, <u>SLAM BACK</u>, <u>CONNECT FOUR</u>, and some children's stuff. <br> | |||
A newspaper writer asked her about the history of <u>LOTTO</u>. I told her that I thought it was invented in England in the 1890's but that I wasn't sure. I'll look it up tonight and she'll call me tomorrow. <br> | |||
She asked if I'd be interested in writing a background piece on <u>GO</u>. Of course. Told her that my fee was $15 an hour and that I could give her a "ballpark" figure when we'd discuss the details. As we discussed it further we came to the idea that I do the research and one of them write the article, which would take much less of my time. <br> | |||
Took a copy of Lowe's <u>BRAINSTORM</u> and <u>AD-LIB CROSSWORD CUBES</u>. Didn't take the following but I'll have to get them eventually: <u>SUB SEARCH</u>, <u>AD-LIB</u>, <u>NUMBERS UP</u>, <u>PLAY ON WORDS</u>, and <u>SHOWDOWN POKER</u>. All are Lowe except the first. | |||
