Who owns the rights to the game Monopoly?

It was the Parker Brothers, who owned Monopoly®, then the Parker Brothers were swallowed up, eaten by, if you will, General Mills™. Thus, I guess, it's a mix between the Parker Brothers and General Mills™ that own the sole rights to the game Monopoly®.


What year did Hasbro get a copyright for the game Monopoly?

Hasbro would have received the rights to Monopoly when it bought Tonka in 1991. Tonka received the rights when it purchased Kenner Parker Toys in 1987. Kenner Parker was formed by the merge of Kenner and Parker Brothers in 1985. Parker Brothers had been a subsidiary of General Mills since 1968, and had purchased the rights to Monopoly in 1935. The Charles B. Darrow patent (US 2,026,082), owned by Parker Brothers, Inc., was issued December 31, 1935, having languished in the patent office since its filing in August. Under today's US patent laws, it would be denied, copies having already been sold to the public, by the inventor, in 1933 - more than a year before filing for the patent. Furthermore, it would have been invalid because it was not actually invented by Darrow, having been substantially copied from other games that had been around (and patented) since 1904.
