In the mid 50's, Pedro Flores was associated with Royal, and several Flores versions were released. This yo-yo used the same layout and blanks as the Royal Jewelled of the same time, but carried the Flores name. Although these read "Original Tournament", these are not to be confused with releases from the original Flores company of the late 1920s.
