Reply to comment by Djinn42 in TIL that Milton Bradley originally had been in the business of selling pictures of celebrities. After his biggest seller Abraham Lincoln grew his iconic beard and rendered his entire stock of lithographs worthless and had customers demanding their money back, MB switched to selling board games by Loki-L

If anything you’d think it would make the picture more valuable, considering they couldn’t take new ones of that style
