JANUARY 1975 - MONDAY 27
27TH DAY - 338 DAYS TO COME
Letter from Jim Scully. Enclosed tear sheet of his game
TIC-TAC-TEA in CRUSADER magazine.
To Post Office. Mailed AGOG to H. Mole ($.26) and KRYPTO,
CONFIGURATIONS, and TRI-NIM to Walter Haas ($1.04). Had
2 packages with S & T and MOVES for Walter but they
were 6# each and the maximum for "printed matter" is 4#.
Wrote to Eric Naiburg, suggesting that he call me - after
calling him at one of the numbers and getti on his
stationery and getting someone else.
Call from Bob Gellman while I was at P.O. and I called back.
He asked about the "--I hate you--" (see 1/23) and I explained.
Discussed probability of doing ROMMEL for next year. Someone
has come to him with the idea of doing a GAME on
the "Guiness Book of Records" (spelling?). If the game is not
good he'll have me work on it for a share of the royalties. He
also suggested a GAME on the "Bermuda Triangle" and we
discussed this. I suggested FIGHT CITY HALL, mentioning
that LIE, CHEAT & STEAL is reputed to do the best of its line.
He'll take me out to lunch after Toy Fair to discuss game
possibilities.
