 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

The BC Rainbow Yo fixed axle yo-yo made out of dyed, laminated maple wood. This version had an odd, alternate seal compared to the more commonly known seal on the other No. 49 Rainbow Yo in this museum. Was it a test piece? A prototype? A pre-production release? A production release? One can only hypothesize. Interestingly, the yo-yo came from an individual who lived in Aurora, New York, which is only about 130 miles west of Arcade, New York where BC/What's Next was located.
Came with one extra cotton string, a blue, velour, drawstring carrying pouch, and a trick sheet. Notice that "Rainbow Yo" is trademarked.
By the time No. 50 was released, "Yo" was dropped from the yo-yo's name.
Original retail price: $11 US. | |
