80. Salem History: The Parker Brothers

2023-09-12
Clue. Sorry. Ping-Ping. Nerf. Rook. Ouija. And Monopoly! These are just a few of the classic games produced by the Parker Brothers right here in Salem during their 100+ year history. The company was founded by Salem native George Swinnerton Parker, who was later joined by his brothers, Charles and Edward. Join Jeffrey and Sarah as they talk about the game company that dominated the market for most of the 20th century, and how one of its best-selling board games saved Salem. https://www.museumofplay.org/blog/otherwise-parkerized-oral-histories-from-parker-brothers/
