Follow on Google News | John Wayne Monopoly Is Now Available at John Wayne CollectablesThe classic board game Monopoly has been redone into a John Wayne edition and is now available from John Wayne Collectables.
By: Wayne McDonald Monopoly is a redesign of an earlier game "The Landlord's Game", first published by the Quaker and political activist Elizabeth Magie. The purpose of that game was to teach people how monopolies end up bankrupting the many and giving extraordinary wealth to one or few individuals. The history of Monopoly can be traced back to 1903, when a Quaker woman named Elizabeth (Lizzie) J. Magie Phillips created a game through which she hoped to be able to explain the single tax theory of Henry George (it was intended to illustrate the negative aspects of concentrating land in private monopolies). Her game, The Landlord's Game, was commercially published in 1924. Like other special editions of Monopoly, this edition contains game tokens that fit the theme, in this case, a cowboy hat, a belt buckle, a cowboy boot, "Duke" the dog, John Wayne's directors' chair and a stagecoach. The game board also has properties that were important to John Wayne in his personal and professional life.
