Rc'd. a letter from <u>Violet I. Gunther</u>. I can get the copy of   | |||
<u>TOURING</u> for $3 plus .50¢ postage.  | |||
Rc'd. a note from <u>Frank Armbruster</u> that he was sending  | |||
me a copy of <u>TAKE FIVE</u> (the California one), and  | |||
also a <u>PUZZLE</u>.  | |||
To Copyquik and got repros of <u>ALSOS</u> and  | |||
<u>MARIAS</u> for <u>Michael Dummett</u>t.  | |||
Also made repros of the <u>MANHATTAN MADNESS</u> rules-  | |||
2 copies.  | |||
Also 12 copies of column from <u>''S&T''</u> #24, and some  | |||
pages from others to send to <u>Frank Thibault</u>.  | |||
At Speakeasy Antiques, on Broadway north of 8th St. bought  | |||
a copy of <u>SPOOF</u> (M.B. 1918) for $6.00 plus tax.  | |||
To <u>Carl Eisenberg</u> and gave him the <u>MANHATTAN MADNESS</u>  | |||
rules. He read thru them and found them clear. Gund  | |||
decided not to put any more money in the business. He  | |||
is trying to raise it elsewhere, but it is rough. He should  | |||
know by the end of this month. He said if I have  | |||
someone else to show it to, he'd understand. I said that  | |||
I would want it by Toy Fair, but not likely before.  | |||
To <u>Felicia</u>. She had just called BB about a letter from  | |||
<u>Bob Edwards</u>. <u>TOTALLY</u> & <u>TROMINO GO</u> were received fairly  | |||
well and are still in testing.  | |||
<u>LIVE WIRE</u> sounds exciting. He remembers playing it with  | |||
Rudy & me and is looking forward to seeing it soon. (Told  | |||
Felicia I'd try to have it ready Friday of next week  | |||
when she comes over.)  | |||
<u>COFFEE BREAK</u> from the picture looks like it is all luck  | |||
and doesn't excite them.   | |||
Games did very well at X'Mas in the Kansas City area and  | |||
the higher ups at X are showing some interest. (Felicia  | |||
said that <u>Jim Goldsberry</u> (?) showed more enthousiasm -   | |||
when?)  | |||
No mention of <u>WHAT'S IT WORTH TO YOU?</u> and Felicia will  | |||
ask again.  | |||
Jerry Green told Felicia that their game would be called  | |||
THE DICTIONARY GAME and would retail for $5.98.  | |||
Some people in Spokane manufacture a word  | |||
