Collecting yo-yos
Article Abstract:
Yo-Yos have gained a lot of popularity as a collectible in the last decade, and their history goes back to the ancient Orient and Greece. They became popular in the US in the 1930's, when a Filipino immigrant named Pedro Flores began making them. He later sold out to Donald Duncan, who created a yo-yo empire.
