Board game manufacturers pay to use a famous image on a game if they think the game will sell. The firm relies on the person's celebrity to help sell games. This applies to anyone famous, from presidents to recording stars. In 1963, Patty Duke held America's attention, starring on the popular "Patty Duke Show." Milton Bradley's Patty Duke Game rode along on the fame of Duke and her sitcom. The game is a deceptively simple race game, aimed at little girls.
