Very Vintage 1935 Monopoly Game

"Holy Do Not Pass Go, Batman!"

Oh, have we got another awesome item into 13909 Antiques!

Very Vintage 1935 Monopoly Game

This can be considered "Rare", as it was issued soon after Parker Brothers secured the rights to the Monopoly Game (it was originally issued by Charles Darrow, in 1934).


From the site "MonopolyCity.com
In 1935 Parker Brothers bought the rights to the Monopoly Game and began selling it with the Parker Brothers name, and the Trade Mark Label, on the boxes. Only about 25,000 were manufactured. This 'Trade Mark Edition,' - The no 7 Black Box "Trade Mark" game is the ultimate Parker Brothers Monopoly Game for collectors.
Sometime during 1935 Parker Brothers began putting Patent Pending, then Reg U.S. Patent Office, and later patent numbers, on the boxes replacing the Trade Mark label.
Most Monopoly games that were issued between 1934 and 1954 are considered rare and very difficult to find.
This is without the board, as research, and other dealers, have told that the very early editions of the game, you had to purchase the board separately.




And ours is in Very Good condition, including all the pieces, some of which are unique, and not included in later or current editions.

If you are a Monopoly, or overall board game fan, roll the dice, and hustle up here to 13909 Antiques to take this 1935 Monopoly Game to it's new home
