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 Bandalore Yo-Yo Exhibit #179 Type Production Shape Standard (-) Axle Fixed Finish Painted Color Silver Metallic Packaging None Construction One piece wood Response None Diameter 2" Gap Fixed Estimated Value $650 Condition 7 Date 1940 Owner David Hall Compare Pedro Flores dabbled in the yo-yo market after he sold his company to Donald Duncan, along the with the trademark for the word "yo-yo". Bandalore yo-yos were made after the sale of Flores Yo-Yo Company, but before his association with Royal, and the "Royal" Flores line. Date is uncertain, but best estimates put it in the early 1940s. It is difficult to find a super mint condition Bandalore. The decal logo easily wore off with minor use, and paint lifting is very common on these, most likely due to use of wood not kiln dried in manufacturing. Pictured here is a silver Bandalore with excellent decal, but with some lifting of the original paint.
