Milton Bradley Company
The
Milton Bradley Company was an
American game company established by
Milton Bradley in
Springfield, Massachusetts in
1860. In
1920 it absorbed the game production of
McLoughlin Brothers, formerly the largest game manufacturer in the United States and in
1987 it purchased
Selchow and Righter, makers of
Parcheesi and
Scrabble.
Milton Bradley was taken over by
Hasbro, Inc. in
1984. Now wholly owned by Hasbro, it is still retained as one of Hasbro's brands, similar to the manner in which
Parker Brothers is one of Hasbro's brands. It is a
board game and sometimes
video game publisher. During the late
1980s and early
1990s, Milton Bradley marketed a series of games in North America that were developed in the United Kingdom by
Games Workshop that drew heavily from GW's
Warhammer Fantasy universe, albeit without explicit reference to the Warhammer product line.
