 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

Photo caption text:
"HERE'S how to operate a yo-yo," Mrs. Norman Brookes tells her three young daughters as she demonstrates the first step in the "round-the-world" trick. Mrs. Brookes, of 2601 Lomita Verde drive, was Southern California yo-yo champion 20 years ago when she was a teen-aged Catherine Hyatt, of Los Angeles. Watching Mother for instructions, left to right, are BARBARA, 11; ROBERTA, eight, and JO ANN, four. The two older girls are pupils in Longfellow school. They were improving their yo-yo technique for the contest which the Bakersfield Recreation commission sponsored.
