UNBOXED Rare genuine 1940s Homefront WW2 Wartime Pack  Monopoly Game that has the , wartime pack notice & Wooden Pieces. This is the only one on ebay with the war time paper work and notice as most are not homefront manufactured the condition is very good there is no board but easy to get one from this period, the money looks like it's never been dealt out all paperwork and cards are in amazing condition considering there age and quality of the wartime paper, these don't come up very often and would say this would not be out of place in any ww2 museum

During WWII, the manufacturer of the UK version of Monopoly, John Waddington Ltd., produced a Wartime edition due to supply constraints. The rules were altered, pieces were replaced and a spinner was used in lieu of dice.

All of the currency and playing cards were printed on cheaper stock and the famous game pieces were replaced with cardboard cutout versions that were affixed to the top of pieces of wood. Perhaps the coolest alteration was the spinner that replaced the dice. The design is simple and effective. Even the rules were revised for quicker gameplay. A time limit? Madness! The quality of the ‘chance’ and ‘community chest’ cards were reduced and the houses and hotels were simplified. 

Another bit of useless info they also produced during WW2 with MI9, a POW escape version with hidden tools and maps but unfortunately this isn't one of them!

MISSING SPINNER !
