Additional profits for Parker Bros and Milton Bradley

In my previous post I mention closure, and so I went Googling for images that represented the visual concept. During that process, I stumbled upon the following image:



The design reminded me of a Scrabble board - so I wondered if anyone had tried out this idea before.



Yes,



But inspiration seemed lacking. Though these two bags might be nice for a travel/game bag/tote - I thought someone would've done something better.



This is a Scrabble box that has been repurposed. They get more points for creativity, but the rigid design seems a little impractical.



Something like this seems a bit more expressive, and originally I thought the letters were attached but if you look closer - they're little plastic sleeves. It looks like they go around the entire bag (not sure what the full count is though). It's an interesting idea, but it still feels a little lazy - you're essentially just paying for someone to sew letter holders onto an otherwise ordinary bag for you. Some handy do-it-yourself'er could replicate this fairly easily.



Whoa! Now this (but with Scrabble letters instead of keyboard ones) seems like it could be a fantastic idea! The wood tones of the letters would make it look a little softer - you'd just have to go through quite a few pieces to cover the entire purse. But with the number of Scrabble nuts and quirky teachers out there - I think you'd have a nice little product.

Anyone have thoughts on how to attach the letters though?
