Duncan Yo-Yo Champion award plaque from early 1980s. When I first saw these plaques I didn't believe they came from Duncan because they were so simple and homely looking. I actually thought they were fake. But, after some researching, I found out that's not the case.

What's interesting--and rather odd--is that this plaque was given to yo-yo contestants who came in third place. See the accompanying 1980 Duncan contest ad in this exhibit.
