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

One of the primary models in the Hi-Ker line. The Professional Top was made with the same blanks as the older Cheerios. Most original Cheerios are slightly oversized, like this yo-yo, at 2 3/8" Diameter. Some later versions may have been made by Duncan, after buying Cheerio, as they are the same shape and size as the Duncan models of that time.

This an older Professional Top, in an unusual color combination. Mint condition, with excellent logo.
