Call from Marilyn Nierenberg. The editor has gone over my piece for THE FAMILY CREATIVE WORKSHOP and it will be going over to Time/ Life. She'll send me a carbon copy to check and I can get any com- ments to her within two weeks. She'll also send me the copy of MARIE-CLAIRE.
Called Barbara Weinstein. The Blowup of VASARELY was shipped to Bloomingdale's. In fact everything is there, except that she is not sure whether Bloomingdale's will supply the cardboard. I said I'll bring some. She'll call me Thursday or Friday morning to make the final arrangements.
Call from Alice of "Gamut of Games". They tried to get a copy of A PLAYER'S GUIDE TO TABLE GAMES but couldn't find one in the city and stackpole promised to send one - but didn't. She wanted the plug about CARTEL (and ACQUIRE). I read her the following her the final paragraph, as she copied it.
