Nostalgia Has It With This Monopoly Edition In Wood

Since the games maker Parker Bros first published the Monopoly board in 1935 it has been a hot favourite of families to play during the winter holidays.The idea of a property trading game goes back to the beginning of the 20th century with Lizzie Magie and since has spawned a huge industry, on the way producing many variations of it. This Monopoly edition in wood smacks of nostalgia at its core.

Buyers, including collectors, say that this version is 'true' to the original concept as produced in 1935.The whole is in a compact wooden box.The board folds into quarters and the playing pieces are in metal, with the houses and hotel pieces made of wood.The artwork on box and board just take you back to a familiar place.

This is one for the serious players and also those whose holidays are made more exciting by the call: "Let's play Monopoly!" That it is a game of the past and the present generations,and looks likely to endure in the future is evidenced by its illustrious career in our homes.This is a timeless gift for birthday or Christmas.

The appeal for me is that this sturdy set made principally of wood will always be around when needed. It will endure the tension of the play, and the neglect when consigned periodically to the attic or toy cupboard.It is an essential board game in any collection.
What a gift.Go on,go for it!They will love you for it.
