 Sponsors and Curators
The Museum of Yo-Yo History is a labor of love, and we would not be able to stay up-to-date with exhibits without the support of our sponsors and curators. Big thanks go to One Drop Design and Duncan for supplying us with their latest models, YoYoExpert for their help and support, and to Cody Orr, TotalArtist and YoYoBrothers™ for allowing us to use their collections!
If you're a manufacturer, or just a big collector and you want to help support the Museum drop me at line at chimera@yoyomuseum.com

Manufactured by
Donald F. Duncan, Inc.
28 N. Sheldon St.
Chicago, Ill
Using Google Maps, the above address apparently no longer exists. As I eventually discovered, Sheldon street was changed to Loomis street long ago. In 1929, however, the address was home to a radio manufacturer called High Frequency Laboratories. Then, sometime in 1932, it became home to the D. F. Duncan, Inc. business.
The Duncan company would eventually move to Evanston, Illinois and then to Baraboo, Wisconsin.
A hard-to-find, early Duncan string pack.
