The Octopus of Monopoly turban South view of All Hallows'The Octopus of Monopoly, 1888. Commerce battles the Monster octopus called Monopoly. The little boat, Free Competition, is being pulled under the waves by the tentacles of Copper, Salt, Iron, Coal and Cotton. Industry was finding it increasingly difficult to obtain such essentials without encountering the problems and high prices concomitant upon there being so few people controlling supplies. From Punch, or the London Charivari, November 3, 1888.
