By the way if you can point me further to other places I could find such scans please let m know. Victoria P.
You've come to the right place for old PBM research. The Wiki hereabouts points to lots of games that are still available (in some form) along with rulebooks (many directly from "the old days"). And I'm sure you'd have plenty of help picking up such things from the membership hereabouts, and lots of commentary on how the game designs provide balance appropriate to good game theory.
