FRIDAY 25 SEPTEMBER | |||
1970 268th day - 97 days to come | |||
---- | |||
Rcd. a letter from <u>Frank Thibault</u>. Sent me the rules | |||
for <u>SQUIGGLE</u>. | |||
He thinks <u>TROMINO GO</u> is a good game, but is afraid | |||
that no company will look at this type of game | |||
anymore. He has one called <u>CONTIGO</u> which 10 com- | |||
panies have rejected, with complimentary letters. | |||
He asked for <u>TOTEM</u> back from 3M because they can't | |||
do anything with it for a couple of years, although they | |||
seem to like it as much as <u>PLOY</u>. | |||
"Samsonite" so far likes <u>CONTIGO</u>. | |||
Jerry's <u>PLUG-A-JUG</u> is doing very well. He just sold | |||
<u>COMMODITY</u> to "Samsonite." | |||
Called <u>Felicia</u> (just as she was about to call me). She | |||
wanted the info on <u>Ginni Scott</u> in <u>''T & N''</u>, since she | |||
threw that part of the page away after cutting out | |||
the picture of the Gamette packaging. | |||
She had no further info about my demonstrating | |||
at "Brentanos," so I'll go ahead with plans for my opera- | |||
tion. | |||
We tried to come up with a better name for | |||
<u>FITTING & PROPER</u> with no success. We'll both think | |||
about it and speak again on Sunday. I said I'd | |||
bring it to her Monday about 3. She'll get it | |||
right out to X. I again said that I didn't want | |||
to offend <u>Bill Caruson</u>. She said that he hadn't been | |||
that interested; willing to see but not particularly | |||
enthousiastic. | |||
<u>Steve Barkoczy</u> wrote a long analysis of <u>FITTING AND PROPER</u>. | |||
Felicia didn't want to read it, but she told him she is | |||
sure I'd want to. Will either have him mail it to me or bring | |||
it over some time when I am there. | |||
Wrote to <u>Haar Hoolim</u>. | |||
Called <u>Herb Siegel</u> (the antique game collector) | |||
[address] Wyncote, Penna. 19095, 215-TU6-9486 | |||
We will visit them on Oct. 11 and 12. Herb will send | |||
me a map to locate his house. |
