Museum of Yo-Yo History


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

Imperial's E-Z Go Ribbon Yo-Yo is essentially identical to the Yoffy by Duncan, and the Ribbon Spinnin' YoYo by an unknown maker. Plastic body halves with a cloth ribbon pegged to the axle.

Yo-yo itself has "U.S. PAT NO 4290224" imprinted on it. However, the bubble card has "US Patent Nos. D275582 4290224 / 4437261 / 4442625 / 4492057" printed on the bottom of the card on the front. Also has printed below the patent numbers, "FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING".

Toy is from the mid to late 1980s.

Made in Korea for Imperial Toy Corporation of Los Angeles, California, 90021.
