Well, it's not in Antarctica.  Though a couple Uruguayan researchers expressed interest in the game...

I can't tell if it's in the Vatican Secret Archives or not.  The indexing is strange, archaic, and all in Italian.  The core index is an 800,000 card file dating back to the 1700s.  Anyone read Italian?  Check http://www.vatican.va/library_archives/vat_secret_archives/index.htm -- it could be a freebie.

Next stop: GeoCities.  See you next year...
