This is the 10x10 version.

The last of the 3M Bookshelf Series to be produced. It is a very simple tile placement game. It is a 2 or 4 player game, the four player rules consisting simply in a tournament.

Only about 100 copies of this game were produced; they were all pre-production play test and reviewers' copies and most were subsequently destroyed. The first run had a 1965 copyright and a 10 X 10 playing surface; the second run has a 1966 copyright and a 9 x 10 playing surface.

* I am surprised to find in all the research I have done on the 3M Bookshelf Game JATI that no one credits the author/designer of the game. I have a Minneapolis Tribune newspaper article published December 5, 1965 about the designer, Keith Havens of Mound, Minnesota. It tells about the original Jati game board he designed was a piece of stiffened burlap that was rolled scroll-style and packaged in a round tube which also held the tiles. He had to rework the game with plastic boards and box packaging before 3M would purchase it from him. I found the game a few years ago at a garage sale and purchased it for $1. The newspaper clipping was in the bottom of the box. Because it was a rather boring concept in gaming (probably the reason 3M cancelled production and destroyed most of the 100 copies produced for assessment/review), my game was rarely played and was stored. On 04.05.08 a mint condition Jati game sold on eBay My game is complete, but the box is not in mint condition.
