From: Jerry Slocum <70410.1050@compuserve.com> To: Alan Bawden Subject: Directory of Puzzlers Message-ID: <961111232911_70410.1050_JHD113-1@CompuServe.COM> Dear Alan, In 1994 the Slocum Puzzle Foundation published the Second Edition of the "Directory of Puzzle Collectors and Sellers". It includes a list of 232 puzzle collectors and designers and described in detail what puzzles interest them. More than 120 of them collect, and are interested in, combinatorial Rubik-type puzzles. It also includes 96 mail order puzzle sellers and 147 retail stores that sell puzzles (and were recommended by collectors). I will be sending out letters of inquiry to all collectors & sellers included in the Directory within the next week for updated information for a new Third Edition that will be published early in 1997. Some, but not all, of the Cube Lovers subscribers will receive mailings. I would be glad to invite Cube Lovers who are puzzle collectors and/or sellers to email me if they wish to be in the Third Edition and are not in the current Directory. I will add a section on puzzle related WWW Internet pages and sites and expand the coverage of email in the new Directory. I will send a letter of inquiry to all that request one and provide their mailing address. I am asking for the replies to be returned to me 3 weeks after they are received. Let me know if you have any questions or you would like more details. I would be glad to have this notice posted for Cube Lovers if you think it is appropriate..
