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!

A portion of the book, in a different form, appeared originally in Malko's 10 page magazine article titled, "Will there ever be another yo-yo champ". The article was published in Lithopinion during the summer of 1970. Mr. Malko's research and work on the article and book actually extends back to July 1966. The book itself is a fascinating, personal look into the history of yo-yo, beginning with Pedro Flores in the late 20s and on through the decades with Donald F. Duncan, Sr.. It basically ends with Don Duncan, Jr. mentioning his patent on a new model he called the Pro-Yo. There are many unique, yo-yo-related photographs and pictures throughout the book. Two appendices are devoted to lists of basic yo-yo tricks by name. The last appendix is an honor roll of the original 42 Filipino yo-yo demonstrators that helped popularize the toy in America.
