<br>145th Day - 220 Days to Come | <br>145th Day - 220 Days to Come | ||
---- | ---- | ||
Early call from <u>Felicia</u>. | Early call from <u>Felicia</u>. She was caught in an elevator | ||
yesterday. Told her about my meeting with <u>Bob Johnson</u>. | |||
She asked if I had talked about <u>LOTTERY</u>. Told her that I | |||
forgot. She'll show it to them some other time. | |||
To R.G.I. Went over the changes in the <u>PATTON</u> board with | |||
Rick Lewis and he fixed them. <u>Bob Gellman</u> said that he | |||
wants to do <u>MACARTHUR</u> next year. A similar game system | |||
is fine with him. Would like it done by beginning of Dec. | |||
of this year so that he can make the Sears, etc. catalogs. | |||
<br>To "Gamut of Games." Spoke to <u>Phil</u> about <u>Bob Reiss</u> wanting me | |||
to get in on the creation of "premiums." He is going to try | |||
to do it himself, with the money all going into "Gamut of Games." | |||
He'll work it out with Bob Reiss. | |||
<br>I mentioned that it is surprising that <u>Bill Knox</u> has published | |||
<u>Gini Scott</u>'s <u>TURNABOUT</u>. Phil doesn't think he is giving her royalties, | |||
even tho he said to me that it is hers. Phil says he claims it is | |||
in public domain. | |||
<br>Took copies of <u>MONTAGE</u>, <u>INFINITY</u>, <u>REALM</u> (Phil says the pcs. [pieces] will | |||
be improved, and <u>CARTEL</u> (11 black markers missing). Also took copies | |||
of the old <u>BRIDGETTE</u> package and two <u>MYWORD</u>. Also took glossies | |||
of the 4 new games. | |||
<br>Phil will call and set up a date for the 4 of us to get together | |||
to play <u>COLLECTOR'S CHOICE</u>, so that he can take it to Hawaii | |||
to show to Djoli. I asked if we should work out the collector's | |||
items before. No, because Djoli wants to do something | |||
on each game so that he can collect a small royalty | |||
(which wouldn't come out of mine). | |||
To Brentano's with idea of showing <u>Dorothy Shapiro</u> the | |||
folder on <u>NETRESULTS</u> and <u>GREATSHAPES</u>. Not in. Left word | |||
that I was there. | |||
<br>Looked at a poster game, <u>WATERGATE</u>. It is a track game | |||
played with dice (which are not included). Being sent back and | |||
losing turns is lucky, since the end of the track is | |||
"jail." | |||
<br>To F.A.O. Schwartz, Argosy Book Store, and Bloomingdale's. Nothing | |||
new. | |||
Picked up my father's translation of <s>50 GIER NA KOLOR</s> | |||
<u>50 GIER NA KOLOROWYCH PLANSZACH</u>. Glancing thru it I found | |||
that <u>SZACHY MAKARENKI</u> (named for the inventor) is | |||
an interesting <u>CHESS</u> variation. | |||
While I was out <u>Jack Davis</u> called. He has something interesting | |||
to tell me about 6/14. I'm to call next Tuesday. | |||
Call from <u>Claude</u>. Asked is a knew of the "American Greetings" | |||
games Yes. He has a copy of a book <u>GODS AND GAMES</u> to give me | |||
next time we get together. I didn't sign the last <u>EXECUTIVE DECISION</u> check. | |||
