 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

Stamp on yo-yo says BIG "D" SLEEPER KING with 3 stars before and after "BIG". Translucent colorless body. An early Dell yo-yo. The packaging uses the word "yo-yo" on it, but the yo-yo itself does not have the word imprinted on it. Dell, along with Royal Yo-Yos, was sued by Duncan over use of the term "yo-yo" on their packaging. Rather than go through costly litigation, Dell chose to discontinue their yo-yo product line.
Note the three solid stars stamped on both the left and right side of the "D" on the yo-yo.
Compare also to the following:
• Dell Sleeper King, No. 602 model, four stars
• Dell Sleeper King, No. 602 model, six stars
• Dell Sleeper King, No. 602 model, Royal Big D Yo-Yo, no stars | |
