Hi- this vintage monopoly game was made in 1961- its going for $10-$15 online but you can make $20-$30 by selling the parts individually. I will be selling it as a set- normally I don’t buy something like this that will only make me around 10 bucks but I thought it would be a useful video for all my garage sale friends who run into this stuff all the time!

  1. That is the version we used to have.

  2. I bought a monopoly game no writing on the board as far as dates but it does have the thimble.

  3. Nice video. But I guess the only way to get the actual date it is from would be to have the receipt. Otherwise, you are getting the copyright dates. I would guess they had different pieces in this time, so if you know the board is original, you could narrow it down better with the pieces included. Otherwise, it's a big spread between changes…..1935, 1946 and 1981….I'm certain that there are many more variations than just those 3 dates. Thimble is gone, Iron I think….used to be fun playing this. I have the same one, and it was purchased in the late 60s. I was walking down the street and saw a pile of old games someone had put out for the garbage, with a much older Monopoly game, along with a lot of other neat stuff, but by the time I got back with the car, it was gone. Thanks for posting!!!

  4. 15.00 for the origional box is pretty good, but nothing inside box is origional. All origional game from that era would be 300 to 500.00 depending on condition. #1 red flag, hotels and houses should be made of wood.

  5. As copyrights ran, I think, for 28 years back then, that means anything made between 1962 (or whatever that was in the video) and 27 years later would all say (c) 1962, wouldn't they? You mentioned in a previous comment that there had been wording changes that would indicate that this one was manufactured during the copyright year. What made you think so? How did you come about this information? Is there someplace that keeps track of all the changes in the Monopoly game (as well as other games)? Thanks.

  6. My board says parker put it also says 1995 on de bottom

  7. I have a new unopened 2005 Classic Game of Easy Money. What can I sell it for? It's still in plastic wrapping. Helen McGee Dallas Tx

  8. Mine has the lathed wooden pieces instead of metal. I think it's from the 40s. I was playing it as a kid in the 60s.

  9. The board dates don't actually indicate the release date. These dates have to do with changes on the board. For example, if the next significant change took place in 1971, this could also be a 1970 release. The board stays intact until the next change. There's a code (usually on the sides of the cover, close to the corners) that's more significant and can help dating different releases

  10. I found a Piccadilly card in an old couch at work just wondering if there’s any chance I can work out what edition it’s from just from a single card?

  11. The Monopoly Game is from the early 1960’s, I believe. It is pre-1974 because of there being no barcode. I got mine for free at at thrift store!!! Score!!!

  12. i got that same 1961 edition at goodwill for $5 last weekend!

  13. 5,6,7 usd for the money, so how much real money does each note from the game worth

  14. I have a monopoly game that I've had for a Long time now. Found in a clean out I done Yrs ago. It's still in plastic. I tried looking it up,but can't find it. I found some Close to this one,just not the same. Without opening it,how can I find out how old it might be?!?! Any info is very appreciated
