Catalogue information
This edition appeared in the period 1947-1957. The addition "De Luxe" probably means that: 1. It is a large board in a long box, compared to the previously released "Junior" games. 2. The version is more luxurious than the "Junior" version from the war years, with the flat tokens and houses and the small banknotes and tickets. Features of this game are further: The "locomotive picture" is stuck on the lid. The board has been forced folded. The back of the game board is printed with the "locomotive-picture". The edge of the innerbox is mahogany-colored; the underside is made of unprocessed brown cardboard. The box contains 5 compartments. The Chance and Community Chest cards are numbered. The manual states that the game is suitable for "3 to 7 players". The dice in photo 2 are not original. Raw wooden dice belong to this game.
