Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was kind of disappointed with this edition. It's about half true to the 1935 edition and about half modern. True Aspects: -Wood houses and hotels -Outside box looks pretty accurate which the earliest look. -The tokens are mostly correct. About half of them are not included in regular sets today so I must assume they were in the old editions only. -Chance and Community Chest cards are done old school. They have old pictures to match the old descriptions. -Property cards are old looking (typed). These are just wrong: -The money tray is the modern version (flimsy plastic). The original was a cardboard box, which I really wanted!! -The wood houses and hotels have overhangs, which is not true to the original pieces. -The property cards are thin. I don't know how thick the originals were but these seemed super thin. -The money is too big and I'm not sure if the style was the one included in the 1935 set. Interesting additions: -History about the game -Pictures of several additions -Double stacks of cash!! They give you two packs of money, which helps with big games. -"Banker's rate card" is included to help with interest and mortgage rates. This information was not included in the 1935 set and helps make the game easier to play. I got these comparisions from the pictures included in the rule book. I don't recommend this edition for serious collectors but if you are looking for a more nostalgic look, go for this edition. The board is made really well and can probably stand up to more use than other editions. I like the look of this set and even for all its faults was still worth my money.
