Expand the sub menu Film. Determined though her research may be, Pilon seems to make a point of protecting the reader from the grind of engaging these truths. More From Our Brands. We logged you out. This book allows a darker side of Monopoly. Cannot recommend it enough! Part journalist, part sleuth, Pilon exhausted five years researching the game's origin. Mary Pilon's page-turning narrative unravels the innocent beginnings, the corporate shenanigans, and the big lie at the center of this iconic boxed board game. For additional info see pbs.

The book is superlative journalism. Ralph Anspach, a professor fighting to sell his Anti-Monopoly board game decades later, unearthed the real story, which traces back to Abraham Lincoln, the Quakers, and a forgotten feminist named Lizzie Magie who invented her nearly identical Landlord's Game more than thirty years before Parker Brothers sold their version of Monopoly.

GeneralMills Fun Group, Inc. (4nti-Mo- nopoly I1),1 the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals held that the trade- mark registration of MONOPOLY2 for Parker Brothers' popular real estate board game was invalid because the term had become "ge- neric."3 This followed an earlier decision by the Ninth Circuit in the same case Qinti-Monopoly J),4 which set out the basic test to be used to determine if MONOPOLY was "generic." These decisions have received criticism from commentators 5 and trademark lawyers,6 have provoked alarm among trademark owners,7 and have prompted political activity aimed at amending the Lanham Trademark Act.'

  • Toward a New Model for US Telecommunications Policy
    Adjusting Regulation to Competition: Toward a New Model for U.S. Telecommunications Policy t Howard A. Shelanski This Article explains the monopoly rationalefor conventional approaches to telecommunications regulation, demonstrates how the U.S. telecommunications market has changed since the Telecommunications Act of 1996, and then examines whether, in the light of those changes, the conventional approach remains an appropriate paradigm for U.S. telecommunications policy. This Article finds that the general answer is no, and that ex ante regulation that depends for its rationale on monopoly market structure should give way to ex post intervention against specific, anti- competitive acts on the model of conventional antitrust and competition policy. The Article finds, however, that certain kinds of regulation-notably interconnection-still have a role to play in advancing telecommunications policy objectives. This study's conclusions thus challenge the argument that policymakers should wait until market conditions become more competitive to deregulate. But it also challenges claims that the market has developed to the point that Congress should eliminate all industry-specific regulation and regulatory authority in the U.S. telecommunications market. This Article insteadproposes eliminating ex ante regulation that depends on monopoly for its rationale in favor of ex post competition enforcement, but makes allowance for other regulation in those specific circumstances where experience proves such intervention necessary and effective for protectingconsumer

  • Rare and Controversial Early Monopoly® Game Acquired by Strong National Museum of Play® in Rochester, New York
    June 30, 2010 For Immediate Release Contact: Susan Trien, 585-410-6359 [email protected] Rare and Controversial Early Monopoly® Game Acquired by Strong National Museum of Play® in Rochester, New York Who really invented Monopoly? A rare and unique early version of Monopoly®, used as evidence in a controversial, 10-year legal copyright battle over the iconic American game‟s true inventor, has been acquired by Strong National Museum of Play in Rochester, New York—home of the National Toy Hall of Fame®. The museum is pleased to announce that the second oldest known version of the world‟s most popular board game ever has been added to its world-renowned collections of play-related objects: a folk-art Monopoly game created by a member of the Heap family between 1910 and 1917 when the family lived in Altoona, Pennsylvania. The Heap board game also has the distinction of being the oldest Monopoly game with all its playing pieces intact including hand-made money, property cards in color groupings, and houses and other “improvement” buildings. The Heap game was an important piece of evidence in a Monopoly copyright dispute that began in 1974 and spanned a decade. To briefly summarize the copyright disagreement: Pennsylvanian Charles Darrow claimed to have invented the game of Monopoly and sold the rights to Parker Brothers in 1935. In 1973, Ralph Anspach, a professor of economics, invented a game called Anti-Monopoly™; and, in 1974, became embroiled in a lawsuit for trademark infringement brought against him by the General Mills Fun Group. While Anspach never drew a “Go to Jail!” card in his legal battle over the Monopoly copyright—his case dragged on for 10 years, eventually landing in the Supreme Court.
