11 Monday - June 1973
Kamehameha Day (Hawaii) - St. Barnabas - 162nd Day - 203 Days to Come

Wrote the SPECTRUM rules.

Called Leonard Willett about the State Income Tax. We decided to accept it as they stated it. (Actually he called me back tomorrow morning.)

Call from Phil Orbanes. He read the rules for WHAT'S IT WORTH TO YOU? and liked them - tho he didn't have time to play. He spoke to Van Zedwitz about the theme of COLLECTOR'S CHOICE and he like it - whcih will carry weight with Djoli. I mentioned that I had ideas for lengthening the stand-up game.
Carl Eisenberg would like another 12 p&p games and would like to start looking at them by the end of July. Phil is counting on me to supply the bulk of them. We discussed the ones that Fred Feucht had - my original batch. Phil would like me to disguise them, but I said that there isn't any chance that he will be able to g do anything with them.
Carl said he'd like the rules to be no longer than those for NINETACTOE. We arranged to have me pick up a set from Carl Thursday.

Looked at Hargrave's A HISTORY OF PLAYING CARDS AND A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF CARDS AND GAMING. Saw that there wasn't much that I really had to look at in Cincinatti.

copy. He said that the errand error - Auranches replaced by the correct Avranches - had been corrected. He asked if I'd mind, because of the difficulty in getting material, if the board had a raw edge instead of a wrapped one. I said that I knew he would do the best possible.
He showed me a large airplane they ordered for HOLIDAY. I was afraid that it would be too big in Europe, but he said that the players would manage.

To Hoi Polloi and got copies of NINETACTOE, VEGAS 13, WORDPLAY, CHINESECHEK, and DAM-IT! Spoke to Carl Eisenberg and he'd like about a dozen games for the p & p line by the beginning middle of September (I believe) but he'd like to start looking at them by the middle of July. I told him more likely the end of July. O.K.
I asked if he still wants some solitaires (NO WAY). He said no. A solitaire is O.K. in connection with a game, but not alone.
He said that X - Springbok had missed the boat by waiting so long to come out with their new line. Actually he knows that
