Jimmy- I did see the journal. I had to go downstairs to a different room. I remember seeing in the ledger an expense account, or something to that effect, for the game (or did I see the microfilm of it- gee, it's tough getting older and trying to remember these things).

Jeremy- yes, this was the one that was on ebay in September. I actually emailed the seller insisting that she shouldn't sell it early, as she was getting non-stop offers to shut down. She emailed me back that she would leave it up, then a day or two later it disappeared. I emailed and asked her why, and she said she just decided to keep it. I think all the offers made her nervous.

I then befriended her and sent her a good deal of information regarding the card. We communicated regularly after that, and she ultimately asked me if I would sell it for her. She knew nothing about getting it authenticated, so we are already one step ahead of the game.

I gave her a link to this site and invited her to come on if she chooses.
