Page 20 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 4, 2020 GAME | FROM PAGE 2 on lower Pearl Street in the Edgeworth neighborhood. Well, a couple of decades ago, some enterprising locals developed and manufactured a board game called "MALDEN-Opoly," which was fashioned after the worldwide popular “Monopoly” game, which is still played enthusiastically. On that “MALDEN-Opoly” game board, Brandano’s Restaurant was featured as one of the properties “For Sale.” Judie Sullivan would like to either borrow or purchase a copy of the game to show to her grandchildren for posterity. If anyone has a copy of “MALDEN-Opoly” or maybe more than one and would like to make her day, please contact Judie at either 781-397-6000 (Malden High School office number) or by email: jsullivan@maldenps.org. ~ HELP WANTED ~ Construction Help Wanted Seeking Full-Time Laborers Basic construction knowledge, MA Drivers License with clean driving record a must.
