Put a typewriter into the new Monopoly game
Hasbro (the current owners) is holding a vote on new game pieces for a new Monopoly edition and a classic
typewriter is one of the options.
Vote here:
(Personally, I always stuck with the battleship.)

Re: Put a typewriter into the new Monopoly game
I voted my eight, which of course included the typewriter, but it sure made me feel old; a lot of the options were somewhat surprising to me given their contemporary and most likely short-lived relevance. A hashtag symbol? Really?
The pronoun I has always been capitalized in the English language for more than 700 years.

Done!
I bought a new Monopoly when I was living in Bristol because my girlfriend wanted the cat token (no cat in Spanish versions at that time...). My choice was the boot, but if the typewriter finally comes in my pick will be clear

Re: Put a typewriter into the new Monopoly game
I think I voted, but am not sure -- it was rather ambiguous. I'll give it another go. Besides the typewriter, I favor the camera (which looks like a Soviet-era Zorki, for those who are into such things) and the bicycle. You can see that "mature technology" is my thing.
