The Angel, Islington bank within the building; the inscription says it is the "only site on the board named after a building". It is part of the light blue group with Pentonville Road and Euston Road. In the game, a house at the Angel costs £50; by the turn of the 21st century a house on Islington High Street fetched around £600,000. In 1827, James Pollard painted "The Royal Mail Coaches for the North Leaving the Angel, Islington", currently on display in the Tate Gallery. The Charles Dickens novel "Oliver Twist" contains a reference to the Angel, where "London began in earnest". Neil
History of the board game Monopoly in 1991. An all-Europe edition was published by Parker Brothers in 1991 for the nations of the then European Communities, using the Ecu (European Currency Unit). After acquisition by Hasbro, publication of "Monopoly" in the U.S. ceased at the Parker Brothers plant in Salem, Massachusetts in November 1991. In 1994, the license to the company that would become USAopoly was issued, and they produced a San Diego, California edition as their first board. In 1995, a license for new game variations and reprints of "Monopoly" was granted to Winning Moves Games. See the Localizations, licenses, and spin-offs section below for
