  1. This is fake.
    Fidel Castro NATIONALIZED monopolies in the sixties. Not forbidden the Monopoly game board.
    Copies of the game were sold in Cuba in the stores, and even had a more colorful and complex version: Deuda Eterna (Eternal Debt) at witch you are a country trying to avoid debt with the IMF and trying to survive CIA coups.
