WMS Press Release Archived 2013-06-30 at archive.today dated September 6, 2005, citing "over 20 titles of MONOPOLY-branded games". Parker Brothers was acquired by General Mills in February 1968. [124] The first Monopoly edition in Braille is published in 1973. [125] Also in 1973, as the Atlantic City Commissioner of Public Works considered name changes for Baltic and Mediterranean Avenues, fans of the board game, with support from the president of Parker Brothers, successfully lobbied for the city to keep the names. [126] After Parker Brothers was taken over by General Mills, the Monopoly license to Waddingtons was renegotiated (as was the Clue/ Cluedo license to Parker Brothers/General Mills by Waddingtons). [127] By 1974, Parker Brothers had sold 80 million sets of the game. [128] In 1975, another anniversary edition was produced, but this edition came in a cardboard box looking much like a standard edition. [123] Parker Brothers was under management by General Mills as the first six Monopoly Tournaments were held. Pilon, Mary (February 13, 2015).
