Dear list,

Please use caution and avoid Monopoly sets based in different countries.

Going back many years ago I was on holiday in the USA and I went to the shop in 
San Francisco selling goods for one of the American blind institutions; I 
cannot remember which one. There was a monopoly set there which I bought with 
great anticipation.

I could never really get on with it as all of the streets were totally 
unfamiliar. That is, I always knew that Old Kent Road was a very cheap place 
while the real ones to go for were Park Lane and Mayfair. I did not know which 
properties were which colour and hence their value.
 
There are many different sets of monopoly available in the sighted world. A 
former colleague of mine collected them and had around a thousand different 
sets.



Regards, John

Hi Mike

I believe Cobolt Systems does, but whether this is based on the UK game I'm not 
sure.

Kind regards,

Subject: [access-uk] Monopoly

Hello folks

I just did a search in the online RNIB shop for Monopoly, and of course, 
nothing, since they now don't appear to sell more than about half-a-dozen 
things.

Anybody got any ideas where I can get a Braille or otherwise accessible version 
of Monopoly?

Mike
