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

Hi-Ker was the unpromoted line from Cheerio, so their models were very similar. The Sparklemaster used the same blanks as the Cheerio Glitterspin, and many colors are identical as well. Pictured here is a White Sparklemaster with clear jewels. An impressed logo in red at center.

This one is from the original Cheerio/Hi-Ker company, which were slightly oversized at 2 3/8" Diameter.

Some Glitterspins actually have this Hi-ker stamp UNDER the foil sticker. Either Hi-Ker seconds, or liquidation slower Hi-Ker stock to the more popular Cheerio label.
