ORIGINAL MONOPOLY BOARD SERIES

Several people, mostly in the midwestern United States and near the East Coast of the United States, contributed to design and evolution.Д«y the 1970s, the idea that the game had been created solely by Charles Darrow had become popular folklore it was printed in the game's instructions for many years, in a 1974 book devoted to Monopoly, and was cited in a general book about toys as recently as 2007. By 1933, a board game had been created much like the modern version of Monopoly sold by Parker Brothers and its related companies through the rest of the 20th century, and into the 21st.

ORIGINAL MONOPOLY BOARD SERIES

A series of board games was developed from 1906 through the 1930s that involved the buying and selling of land and the development of that land. Magie, a follower of Henry George, originally intended The Landlord's Game to illustrate the economic consequences of Ricardo's Law of economic rent and the Georgist concepts of economic privilege and land value taxation. The earliest known version, known as The Landlord's Game, was designed by an American, Elizabeth Magie, and first patented in 1904 but existed as early as 1902.

The board game Monopoly has its origin in the early 20th century. The five sets of the board game Monopoly depicted here show the evolution of the game's artwork and designs in the United States from 1935 to 2005.
