New Monopoly Collection Pictures Thank you for taking a look at my collection of Monopoly games and related items. I've got most of the collection cataloged and listed, but it needs to be updated. These pictures were taken around January, 1998 and reflect about one-third of my actual collection. They're not quite as nice as the "old" pictures because I shot them rather quickly on my office floor. newpics01.jpg - 35K Two Boston city Monopoly games, 1 New York City, 1 Washington DC, and 1 Philadelphia, editions of Star Wars Monopoly, 2 NASCAR sets, 1 Harley-Davidson set, 1 1996 Deluxe Edition set newpics02.jpg - 26K Various "spin off" and related games. Two Rich Uncles, "Don't Go to Jail" dice game, 2 versions of Monopoly Junior, 2 Playmasters, 3 Advance to Boardwalk, 2 1958 Edition Finance games, 1 1936 Edition Finance game newpics03.jpg - 46K The "unofficial" stuff. 1 Anti-Monopoly, a Parker Brothers ad from 1962 McCall's magazine, a "Marine Game" based loosely on Monopoly, Your Home town Monopoly for Vail, Colorado (not Authorized) The box on the left contains very rare Monopoly chewing gum. This is a complete retail box of 48 packs. Each contains a "life sized" $50 Monopoly bill, a Community Chest Card, and a Boardwalk Property deed - all gum. They also contain stickers. This product was never released due to manufacturing defects - the gum sticks to the packing paper. It is no longer in production and next to impossible to find. newpics04.jpg - 10K Monopoly "jewelry" - Rich Uncle Pennybags pin and McDonald's Lapel pin.       Just so you know, there is no newpics05.jpg. It was a copy of newpics04.jpg. newpics06.jpg - 30K A whole bunch of games from the 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, 80,s and 90's. Also a couple of spare boards, and a special guest appearance by Adobe the cat. Most are complete and range in condition from poor to near mint. The reason I have so many is that there are minor variations in the logos and manufacturers (Parker Brothers has changed owners many many times!) as well as boards and boxes, and I'm striving to have "one of each"! newpics07.jpg - 35K 3 1985 Tin Box Commemorative sets, Bulls & Bears, 1997 Heirloom Edition, 60th Anniversary game, Milk Chocolate Edition (yummy!), 2 Free Parking games, 1985 Deluxe Anniversary Edition, and a couple of my parts games from the 80's and 60's. newpics08.jpg - 34K 1964 Special Edition with some really funky non-standard box graphics, 2 "Anniversary" sets, 1 40th Anniversary set, 1957 "Train Box" edition, 1946 White Box edition, and parts to another White Box edition newpics09.jpg - 42K Here's a whole mess of older games. From the 30's to the 50's. Of special note is the third one form the left in the top row - it's a verified 1935 FIRST PRINTING Parker Brothers "Patent Pending" edition. There are no Parker Brothers copyrights or patents on the board, box or equipment, just "Patent Pending". The original board has "10% or $300" on Income Tax rather than "10% or $200" on games produced after 1935. This is a truly rare Monopoly game - only two versions are older, the coveted "Trademark" sets, which are nearly impossible to find, and the original 5,000 Charles Darrow games, which are more expensive than most used cars. newpics10.jpg - 42K Foreign games - 1961 Italian, 1961 British, 1961 Arabic, 1985 German, 3 Limited Edition Monopoly watches, 2 Monopoly cross-stitch books, 2 Monopoly Board mousepads, Sega Master system Monopoly cartridge, Nintendo GameBoy with Monopoly cartridge, Super NES Monopoly cartridge, 2 Sega Genesis Monopoly Cartridges, Monopoly for PC (2 versions), Amiga, Mac. Star Wars Monopoly CD-ROM for Windows 95 (2 limited editions, 1 regular), The Monopoly Book, and a Travel Edition of Monopoly Junior. newpics-glasses.jpg - 30K Plastic Monopoly logo pitcher with 6 glasses. 3 McDonald's prize glasses. 1 really neat little glass with the utility logos on it. It's perfect for a glass of Crown Royal at the end of hard day! newpics-puzzles.jpg - 26K 2 Monopoly Jigsaw puzzles. One is complete, the other is missing a few pieces courtesy of Adobe the cat. newpics-wall1.jpg - 35K Picture 1 of my living room wall. Each of the games pictured is a complete game, and not pictured in other parts of this page. newpics-wall2.jpg - 35K Picture 2 of my living room wall. The board on the left is an "unofficial" hand-tooled leather board in a wooden frame. The game on the right is an older 1936 game that was missing pieces and is pasted up to look like a game in progress. (I have another one not pictured here in really poor shape - that was Snoopy the dog's fault). The three small boxes are from older incomplete games I have. newpics-wall3.jpg - 25K Picture 3 of my living room wall. These are six foreign sets as they hang in the corner of my living room. They are also pictured in the main area of this site. Monopoly, the elements of the game, related characters, and the design of the game board are trademarks of Hasbro, Inc. ©1997.
