About the game
Park and Shop was a board game sold by the Milton-Bradley Company of Springfield, MA. Developed shortly after World War II, it has similarities to Monopoly in that the game’s genesis is based on a city in the United States, in this case, Allentown, PA. The game was designed “For ages 5 to adult” and was advertised as “The Nation’s Traffic Game Sensation.”More from John Sands Pty Ltd
