Canta Piriquito Canta turns our attention to a site featuring vintage Monopoly cards, before Parker Brothers came up with their current Monopoly mascot, the Rich guy in the top hat.
Some of the concepts seem dated, like the "Black Mariah" police paddy wagon below, and the card that reads "Pay Hospital $100" (for what? Parking? A small bottle of acetaminophen?), but others--well let's just say that, if I were ever a contestant in a beauty contest, it would definitely have a second prize of $11. And the card that reads "From Sale of Stock you Get $45" seems frighteningly topical.
