Jim thinks
Jim thinks that by next summer we'll be ready to start  <br>
discussing the "Game Magazine", especially if he can talk  <br>
<u>Bob Reiss</u> into putting some money into it and helping with  <br>
the distribution.  <br>
I would be the editor but Jim would be the publisher  <br>
and I wouldn't be burdoned with those details. He figures  <br>
we would have to start with from 50,000 to 100,000 <br>
copies per issue.  <br>
I mentioned that <u>Bob Reiss</u> was going to visit me to see  <br>
my collection and to discuss some of my ideas. Jim suggested  <br>
bringing up the idea of the "Game Magazine". When I had my  <br>
doubts he suggested discussing it with <u>Phil</u> first.  <br>
I mentioned that Infinity-Quest will be getting some money in from  <br>
royalties on <u>NINE OF SWORDS</u> and some of <u>Phil</u> is just  <br>
a dreamer. Jim has 100 shares of stock that he bought for $1,500 but  <br>
is not expecting anything from them.
 
Wrote a letter to manufacturer [illegible crossed ou] thanking for copy  <br>
of <u>BUGS & LOOOPS</u>.  <br>
Sent <u>Herb Siegel</u> the catalog sheet on the game  <br>
<u>THE TRAVELLER'S TOUR THROUGH THE UNITED STATES</u>.
