To G. & R. and gave Nan Dimblick the new board for <u>NEW TOWN</u> <br> | |||
and told her of the call from <u>John Wilkenson</u> (see 4/10). She <br> | |||
said that he is only 27 but is the head of the new product <br> | |||
development for a big company. Also he has plenty of money <br> | |||
from his and his wife's family. <br> | |||
She asked if I had heard from <u>George Simon</u> and I told her <br> | |||
I had. He bothered her for over an hour, taking pictures <br> | |||
with a little camera, and she told him that I <br> | |||
knew more about adult games than anyone else. He got <br> | |||
started on the article from a newspaper article with <br> | |||
<u>SEDUCTION</u>, <u>GROUP THERAPY</u>, <u>BODY TALK</u>, <u>STRIP-TAC-TOE</u>, <br> | |||
<u>BUMPS AND GRINDS</u>, and <u>HAT IN THE RING</u>. Nan gave me a copy <br> | |||
of the clipping. (Filed in '72 misc.) <br> | |||
When at Brentano's <u>Dorothy</u> mentioned that she wasn't sure <br> | |||
whether to reorder <u>NEW TOWN</u> and <s>she</s> I showed her <br> | |||

and she appreciated it, altho <u>Henry Levy</u> had already <br> | |||
decided to reorder. The new price of <u>NEW TOWN</u> is $9. | |||
