I am so attention-deficit its not funny….I read the archives as found a few other people mentioning the 1-9 configuration and was relieved that my memory was intact. In 1981 I did a term abroad in Seville, Spain and lived in a barrio that was very urban with many apartment buildings. I enjoyed hanging with the kids better than the college students and remember showing a group of kids there how to play skully. When I left Seville 10 weeks later I spotted a few 1-9 skully boards chalked into the sidewalk over a mile away. Its a really satisfying thing to pass on….a piece of your childhood in Brooklyn! My kids, Caitlin and Connor, and me are in the process of bringing skully to Delaware and Schoharie counties
