In Response To: Maurice Barie's Kickstarter Program (Phil Simborg)

My copy of "Backgammon as Played in Hollywood, With Instructions for Winning, by Oh Tee" arrived today. It was very well packaged for shipping.

IMO this reproduction is very nicely done, so my congratulations to Maurice. I appreciate his keeping a bit of BG history alive.

As to the book itself, first published in 1930, there is some interesting historical material in addition to the usual how-to-play BG. That's as much as I can share without giving an advantage to my tournament opponents.

Thanks, Maurice!
