INFORMATION:-
Monopoly is an American-originated board game published by Parker Brothers. The game is named after the economic concept of monopoly - the domination of a market by a single entity. It is currently published by the United States game and toy company Hasbro, which acquired it from Parker Brothers and its U.K. publisher Wadding tons. Billed as "The Fast-Dealing Property Trading Game", players move around the game board buying or trading property, developing their properties with houses and hotels, and collecting rent from their opponents.
Marvin Gardens, the leading yellow property on the board shown, is a misspelling of the original location name, Marvin Gardens. The misspelling was introduced by Charles and Olive Todd, who taught the game to Charles Darrow, and passed on when their home-made Monopoly board was copied by Darrow and thence to Parker Brothers. The Todds also changed the Atlantic City Quakers' Arctic Avenue to Mediterranean, and shortened the Shore Fast Line to the Short Line. The Todd board is on display in the Strong Museum of Play in Rochester, New York. It was not until 1995 that Parker Brothers acknowledged this mistake and formally apologized to the residents of Marven Gardens for the misspelling. Another change made by Todd and duplicated by Darrow, and later Parker Brothers, was the use of Mediterranean Avenue instead of Arctic Avenue on the board.
Short Line refers to the Shore Fast Line, a streetcar line that served Atlantic City. The B&O Railroad did not serve Atlantic City. A booklet included with the reprinted 1935 edition states that the four railroads that served Atlantic City in the mid 1930s were the Jersey Central, the Seashore Lines, the Reading Railroad, and the Pennsylvania Railroad.
The Baltimore & Ohio (now part of CSX) was the parent of the Reading. There is a tunnel in Philadelphia where track to the south was B. & O. and track to the north is Reading. The Central of N.J. did not have track to Atlantic City but was the daughter of the Reading (and granddaughter of the B. & O.) Their track ran from the New York City area to Delaware Bay and some trains ran on the Reading-controlled track to Atlantic City.
The actual "Electric Company" and "Water Works" serving the city are respectively Atlantic City Electric Company (a subsidiary of Pepco Holdings) and the Atlantic City Municipal Utilities Authority.
