slo’s WEDNESDAY 7/26 poll - Monopoly Game(s)

[amcnj]

We grew up playing my dad’s original version from the 30’s. The box was long gone even then and all pieces are in a tin container. The tokens are metal (pewter maybe?) except for a wooden ship he carved as a kid when the original piece was lost. The houses and hotels are wooden. I have a version from the late 80’s that I took to college.

Sounds familiar. My mother has that same set, no box, and I recall it being dated from the 1930’s too. Though I think the cards and pieces are in a smaller cardboard monopoly box. And that was the set we played with when we were kids too.
