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 Duncan Satellite - No. M-1, domed Exhibit #2176 Type Production Shape Specialty Axle Fixed Packaging Poly Bagged with Card Construction One piece wood Response None Gap Fixed Condition Mint in Package Date 1961 Owner Rick Brough Compare An early wooden Duncan Satellite from about 1961 or 62. Notice that this version of the card did not have "Mark I" printed on the side of the rocket that the Duncan Yo-Yo Man is riding. Also, the back of the card was formatted sideways in relation to the front. Pink lacquer with aluminum flecked finish. On this Satellite version the bulge is entirely domed; later versions had a small diameter flat area on the bulge face. The M-1 was eventually dropped from the Duncan product line around the latter half of 1963. It proved to be a slow seller compared to its sibling the "Shrieking Sonic Satellite" yo-yo which remained popular among youth and continued to be made into 1964.
