Kudos to everyone who has a hand in this project. Your work is invaluable.
Does anyone have a copy of the gamebook from Sept 25, 1977, Chicago at St Louis?

Vikings - They are very helpful with game books requests; by February I should have all Vikings game books from their archives, but I will review them a second time and if there are any that I think I might be able to get an improved copy from them, I will work with them to get those additional game books. The Vikings are slowly but surely putting all of their game books online at their team website; but I'll have all my game books from them before they get all of their game books online.

I was wondering if you had an update at all from the Vikings? And if you needed any help, let me know.

this appears to be a private credentialed website, did you happen to get the gamebooks from the Vikings? If not, do you or someone have the credentials if allowed? If not (x2), what would be the next step? Any contact to recommend to reach out to?
Sorry to hear that. No. This website is pretty tough to find "all the things".JeffreyMiller wrote: ↑Sun Apr 26, 2026 11:45 pmYou do know Rupert is no longer with us?PaulDeVos wrote: ↑Sun Apr 26, 2026 8:36 pmHi Rupert,Rupert Patrick wrote: ↑Fri May 31, 2019 12:38 pm I just noticed the Vikings are putting game books up on their website:
