       Did you know Monopoly was invented by a woman named Elizabeth Magie in 1903?Originally ‘The Landlord’s Game,’ it was designed as a protest against the big monopolists like Carnegie & Rockefeller.But it was Charles Darrow, an unemployed salesman, who eventually sold it to Parker Brothers after playing a version.Parker Brothers credited Monopoly with saving their company. Magie died in 1948 without recognition. Darrow became very wealthy & his legend lives on. #history
