1961 Monopoly Board Game: Parker Brothers, General Mills

6

This vintage Monopoly game was produced by Parker Brothers and General Mills in 1961. This game has been entertaining families for decades, and this is just one of many versions of the board game. This packaging is a very geometric and simplistic design compared to some of the games today. The Monopoly box has changed greatly throughout the years, but the board has only had minor changes. This box is an important part of the history of this game, showing a completely different style than boxes today, that might include characters on the front. This box also includes a photo of the board, which is not seen on most games today.
