I'm willing to bet...

actually I'm surprised that M-dot has not claimed that they own the rights to the term "Iron".  Of course, their lawyers could be working on it.

I like the thimble or the top hat.

I'm a battleship man myself...

The battleship and cannon were added in 1937.  The dog did not come until the 1950s...

The convertible car is the only way to cruise around the board.

Shoe man myself.  No idea why.

This actually looks a lot like the Egyptian ballot voting symbols to help people who can't read know who to vote for...

I used to be a battleship man...until I did 140.6.  I've earned the right to be the dang iron!  

wheelbarrow, shoe, hat, and dog (I just don't care for that kind of dog)...I just didn't care for those pieces.  Ship, cannon, and car are very cool.

btw, the iron doesn't help me win if you're wondering...my 8-year old has whomped me our last 2 games this month!   

But which piece to you feel you are entitled to? 

Ha!  Yeah, that's a good point.  

I think I am going to have to start teaching my kids a lesson playing Monopoly.  I've been letting them live in a Socialist Utopian society apparently.  Who knew that the inventor was such a Lefty, eh?  Every player starting off with $1500?  That's preposterous.  Next time we play, each player will be randomly assigned different net worths prior to the game.  Some players will begin the game with some property, some with lots, and some with none...likewise with the money.

When those poor slobs who start off with the disadvantage eventually go bankrupt, I will explain to them about how they spoiled their "opportunity" to succeed.
