Gave him a reprint of <u>''AGOG''</u>. He'll give me a copy of his book <br> | |||
when it comes out. <br> | |||
He mentioned several books he has been using for reference. <br> | |||
One is put out in paper back, but an expensive one - <br> | |||
''<u>THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF TOYS, GAMES, & DOLLS 1860 - 1930</u>'' <br> | |||
(see 12/5/71) which he borrowed from a friend. <br> | |||
Another is ''<u>TOYS IN AMERICA</u>'' (see 7/9/63). The T.M.A. at 200 <br> | |||
5th Ave. has a copy which they let him borrow over a <br> | |||
weekend. <br> | |||

To <u>Mike Alber</u>. Not in, but picked up <u>DEALER'S CHOICE</u> and <u>SQUARE OFF</u>. | |||
To Brentano's. Saw <u>SENSITIVITY</u> with a Buzzo Cardosa <br> | |||
(spelling?) label. <br> | |||
Spoke to <u>Dorothy Shapiro</u> and gave her a copy of ''<u>S & T</u>'' #30 <br> | |||
and a ''<u>BOOK WORLD</u>''. She took me to her office for me to look at <br> | |||
a game she couldn't understand. It was <u>STRATO TAC-TICS</u>. <br> | |||
Told her a little about it and said I'd tell her more when <br> | |||
I get a chance to play it. Gave her my number and told her <br> | |||
to call me if she had any questions about a game. She said <br> | |||
that I had the reputation for being completely honest & fair. <br> | |||
There was new rack for 3M Gamettes with lots of <br> | |||
<u>SLEUTH</u>, <u>MONAD</u>, and quite a few <u>VENTURE</u>. I was afraid <br> | |||
that they weren't moving but Dorothy said they had just <br> | |||
been restocked. <u>Dick Littlefield</u> does it periodically. <br> | |||
Games in general are doing very well. <br> | |||
To <u>Felicia</u>'s. <u>Lillian Voegelin</u> there. Spoke to them a little. <br> | |||
Told Felicia I was rather depressed about working so hard and <br> | |||
not being any further along than I was when I quit my job. <br> | |||
She said that whatever else happened <u>ACQUIRE</u> would always <br> | |||
be around. <br> | |||
Looked at the game <u>JUNK</u>. There is a deck of cards with five <br> | |||
each of various types of junk : - "jewelry", "chairs", "lamps", <br> | |||
