Full set of Property Deed cards (Good Condition) Old Kent Road has a small amount of rubber band residue. Full set of Community Chest cards (Fair to Good Condition) Slight markings on one but generally very good. Full set of Chance cards (Fair to Good Condition) a couple have inky markings but the rest are in good order. At the time of its release, this particular set would have cost 21 shillings this set would only have been purchased by the wealthy! The contents are: 12 Red "Grand Hotel" pieces (full set) 32 Green "Houses" (full set) 7 Playing tokens - (full set) see below. This gold version would have cost much more than a standard Monopoly set at the time of production. (Even the two side ribbons for lifting the tray out of the box.) This set is an extremely heavy edition, weighing approximately 2.2kg without any packaging. The two gold coloured inserts are also in good order. The box base has some elastic band residue but is in good solid order, as are the gold compartments (again, some elastic band residue). There is also writing on the lid obviously the person who owned it originally was very proud and wanted to retain ownership of his prize! All corners are worn but still solid. There is elastic band residue on the base of the box and markings on the lid. Unfortunately, elastic bands play a huge role in damage to vintage games, and this edition is sadly no exception. There is shelf wear commensurate with age, as shown in photos. These box lids are prone to age related injuries and water damage. The gold box is in fairly good condition for its age. This particular set has the 7 rarer tokens (see below). Monopoly seems like it's always been a part of family life, having been released in this country over 80 years ago and still going strong today. They really don't make them like this anymore! This set is called the "Super Gold" set, with blue printing on the lid and board. Sadly, I am having to thin down my private collection of vintage games, due to space becoming an issue! A vintage, 100% complete Monopoly in this condition is an increasingly scarce item. Monopoly Super Gold 1937 100% Complete with Original Monopoly Note Holders. A little extra for serious Monopoly players! These work with small elastic bands ("loom" bands seem to be perfect) These are all in very good order. Item: 144249439031 Vintage Monopoly Super Gold With Very Rare Tokens & Note Holders.
