Don't know if the makers are still alive but the Kettle family (or two thirds of it) enjoyed a 30-year-old version of it last weekend. Confidently ignoring the instructions, we played several rounds without remembering that landing on the grey bits meant another chance to throw the di.....which had hand-painted numbers on it and one family member actually thought one throw had revealed a "7" and blissfully unaware, moved her piece for 7 spaces. In fairness to her, the painted "4" did look like a continental "7."
