Things have taken a turn. I found Brent, but not in the way I expected. A missing person’s report filed by the State of New Hampshire for July 1994. I’m pretty shaken by this. No one ever told me he disappeared.
I found a page from July 1994 edition of the Merrimack Journal detailing Brent’s disappearance. The more details I read, the more amazed I was that this all happened, and right around the corner from me no less. Brent’s disappearance left no trace, so sign of foul play.
Just a kid was there, and then he wasn’t. And he wasn’t the only one. There were at least three other children that went missing that year all within 6 months, in Southern New Hampshire.
There were a few scant leads and a list of suspects, including a former convict who lived in close proximity to two disappeared children. But no arrests were made. — The Researcher, 8:49PM, Dec 17, 2017
I began to wonder if somehow this console existed far outside the usual circle of video game and toy trade that it has remained undocumented.
The educational games realm is less discussed and less documented in enthusiast circles, so that might be a good place to start. A storybook or reading based console might have belonged to this category,
and if followed might help me narrow down my search. But no... nothing. I’ve scrolled dozens of electronic trade journals and read the profiles of so many game publishers. My eyes are starting to hurt. — The Researcher, 7:30PM, Dec 18, 2017
The image of the crime scene photo in the newspaper jumped out at me. The image was hard to make out, but I swear that the shape laying on the bed IS the console from my memory. The Page Master. It must be real, and not a trick of combined memories.
Perhaps I had misremembered the name. There must be a way to find its true identity. — The Researcher, 9:12PM, Nov 12, 2017
Maybe I need some rest.
My original drawing... it matches up well with the photograph. That crystal ball looking piece that held the screen was what stood out to me the most.
