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 version of Magie's game, which eliminated the second round of play that used a Georgist concept of a single land value tax, had become common during the 1910s, and this variation on the game became known as "Auction Monopoly". The auctioning part of the game came through a rule that auctioned any unowned property to all game players when it was first landed on. This rule was later dropped by the Quakers, and in the current game of "Monopoly" an auction takes place only when an unowned property is not purchased outright by the player that first lands on it.
