DECEMBER 1974 - SATURDAY 21
PILGRIMS LANDED 1620 - ST. THOMAS, APOSTLE - 355TH DAY - 10 DAYS TO COME


Rcd. [received] 5 copies of Nelson's edition of AGOG (Graeme Levin kept one for "office use.") Noticed that they left in my mention, in the introduction, of the Appendix. Didn't check the rest of the things I wrote about.

Sent Holiday cards to Dick Christiansen, Keith Tuggle, and Carol Peterson - with a thank you for the gift.

Wrote to AKRON BEACON JOURNAL about SPLURGE.
Wrote to purchaser of THE SIX PACK OF PAPER & PENCIL GAMES, with the SPY illustrations.

Cal Finished the board for THE MEMORY GAME and cut out the cards. Pasted the pictures that BB drew up yesterday. 30 of them instead of the 48 I want to include.


Played THE MEMORY GAME with the Laurence's. Played o.k. except that on my third turn I got all 16, and BB was very close to having them all.
Played JACK POTS 6 using 9 cards. That seemed just about right and the game played in a little more than 1/2 hour.
They brought me a CARVEL INTERNATIONAL ICE CREAM GAME that came in a comic book put out by Carvel. With the rules given it was unplayable. (Filed in '74 Misc. [1974 miscellaneous])


(cont. [continued] from 12/20) [12/20]


Bob likes RED LETTER and is still trying to get the cost down. Also she thinks that TOTALLY will sell. Incidentally, Hallmark didn't buy Ravensburg. They have a liscensing agreement, and their games will also have to pass a market test.

Started working on the Board for THE MEMORY GAME. In the evening BB drew 32 pictures on paper.

Rcd. [received] a dividend of $20.25 from my "Infinity Quest Corp." stock - signed by Phil Orbanes.
Rcd. [received] Holiday cards from Warren Buell, Jim Scully, and Mike Alber.

While Harold Saperstien was here about the engineering, S&T came up and I gave him copies of #45, 46, and 47.
