I won this 5 Trick Yo-Yo Award patch from National Yo-Yo in November 1973 on the north-east corner of Dunbar and 41st, outside Nitingale Pharmacy, Vancouver, British Columbia. (The pharmacy is long gone; in it's place now is a used bookstore.) The patch is yellow/orange felt with red flocking of the letters and number. Earning this patch was one of my fondest childhood memories and was the motivation for my lifelong interest in yo-yoing and yo-yo collecting. The instructor/demonstrator who showed up wore a dark navy, waist-length coat (a G9 Harrington jacket made by Baracuta) with a large National Yo-Yo patch sewn on the breast pocket area. An entertaining and nice guy who put on a jaw-dropping demonstration for us kids. I managed to pull off the necessary tricks against 12 other kids to become the "National Yo-Yo Champion" in the neighborhood. (See the National Yo-Yo Champion shield patch.)
At that time, National Yo-Yos were the yo-yo brand of choice (all wood, fixed axle), probably because they were a Canadian company, even though the yo-yos were made in Sweden.
