MONDAY 17 OCTOBER
1966 290th day - 75 days to come
The game I had shipped from Copenhagen to Freda finally
came - THE BIG INDIAN GAME (DET STORE INDIANER-SPIL).
The store in which it was purchased was:-
Crome & Goldschmidt
Department-Stores
Østergade 32,
Copenhagen K, Denmark
Called Simulmatics to confirm appointment for DATA today.
Goodkin couldn't make it.
With Claude & Arthur to Brentanos.
Bought:- ON SETS
Saw:-
CHAMPIONSHIP BASEBALL. Another game with a lot of charts by the makers of PRO QUARTERBACK & CHAMPIONSHIP GOLF.
SOLAR CONQUEST. Couldn't see sealed box. Seems to have shooters, launching pads & other action gimmics.
SHAKESPEARE (A-H). Seems to be a PARCHISI type game with penalty and advance spaces on the path, also luck cards. In the "beginners" game each player has three markers but must also mo always move the rear one. In the "advanced" game he can choose between the 3. In the "tournament" game a player can move ahead for each character he can name in a specific play.
FACULTY CARDS
October Playthings came. It has a picture of SHAKESPEARE.
During day called Bill Bentzin about the article on me
which I didn't receive. He will have his secretary
send me a copy. He will also get me a copy of
BREAKTHRU and some extra copies of ACQUIRE.
In meeting (in Manhattan) with Claude & Arthur, the latter
mentioned that the fellow interested in the HIGH DECK
had published another GAME. He refused to give me the
name of the game. Claude and I were both annoyed.
