TIME PERIOD: 1950s

HISTORY: Monopoly started as "The Landlord's Game," created by Elizabeth Magie in the early 1900s to showcase the downsides of land monopolies. Parker Brothers picked it up and launched their version in 1935, turning it into a classic favorite across America. This 1954 "Popular Edition" captures the charm that made the game a household staple in the mid-century. Featuring the beloved Rich Uncle Pennybags and Parker Brothers' signature style, it’s a nostalgic treasure that collectors and fans can’t resist!
