Avon Presents... Garfield Yo-Yo on a sealed clear blister on a full card backing printed with black-and-white Garfield comic panels.

The plastic, fixed axle yo-yo was made by Avon Products, Inc. and licensed from United Feature Syndicate.

The card’s copyright (1978, 1981) and multiple period listings on auction sites place this model squarely in the 1981 Avon Garfield range. Note the absence of a UPC code.

The yo-yo itself is a plastic two-piece return top with a raised, molded Garfield figure on the face, surrounded by a red ring reading "GARFIELD". More of a novelty item than a high performance yo-yo; typical of Avon catalog premiums of the era.

The card does not print a price, and an Avon campaign brochure with this exact SKU is hard to find. Avon novelty toys of this period typically sold for a few U.S. dollars by way of door-to-door/catalog sales. But a primary source price for this yo-yo remains unknown.

Original retail price: $ USD.
