Mike asked if I had rcd. the review copies I wanted. No. He gave me
copies of <u>WORD MASTER MIND</u>, <u>FOUR SIGHT</u>, <u>WORDS WORTH</u>, and a pricelist,
with some corrections (placed in <u>WORDS WORTH</u> box). He looked at the
boxes for <u>PIECES OF NINE</u>, but they were all empty, so he couldn't give me
one for my collection - it has been discontinued.
To S.P.I. Made the following repros [reproductions]: <u>THE COLLECTORS CATALOG & PRICE GUIDE TO
WARGAMES</u> - for <u>Graeme Levin</u>; sheets for the 6 games in <u>BEYOND COMPETITION</u> -
most of <u>SPACE EXPLORER</u>.
<br>Spoke to <u>Brad Hessel</u> and it will be O.K. if I bring my next column in as late
as 1/31.
<br>Took a copy of <u>AFTER THE HOLOCAUST</u>. Also duplicate copies of <u>OUTREACH</u>,
<u>STARFORCE</u>, <u>MINUTEMAN</u>, and <u>DREADNOUGHT</u> in bays; <u>CONQUISTADOR</u> in a
box; <u>PRESTAGS MASTER-PACK</u> - containing <u>CHARIOT</u>, <u>SPARTAN</u>, <u>LEGION</u>, <u>VIKING</u>,
and <u>YEOMAN</u>.
<br>Spoke to <u>Redmund Simonsen</u> about <u>AFTER THE HOLOCAUST</u>, saying it looks interesting.
He said that it wasn't an easy game - with lots of bookkeeping. Said tha
I'd look at the rules.
While I was at <u>Felicia</u>'s, she mentioned that <u>Dick Harris</u> may have left
M.B. because he was upset at <u>Roy Nyman</u> being put over him. She
never met Nyman; I told her I had at Toy Fair last year. (This may have
happened some other time-possibly in a telephone call.)
[arrow pointing to paragraph above and paragraph below] [started 1/17]
At S.P.I. picked up a letter to me from <u>Loren Dunton</u>. Short note and
enclosed a pad of <u>KWATRO</u> put out by "Amoco."
In <u>TIME</u> article on Rupert Murdoch, mention of <u>TWO-UP</u>, an Australian game - two
coins are flipped at once - two heads you win; two tails you love [lose]; one of each -
toss again.
Letter from <u>Gini Scott</u>. Would appreciate catalogs. Mentioned <u>SPIRITUAL GROWTH</u>,
<u>GANGLAND</u>. Enclosed AGA Newsletter (vol. 7, no. 2). <u>Larry Heller</u> is listed
as V.P.
