1930s Duncan Beginner's Yoyo in Black and Beautifully Aged Yellow Paint man in chaps I can almost imagine it

I can almost imagine it hanging around the neck of a street corner preacher

WWII era I believe

and that it is an example of their Shadow ware line

though both sets share nice rich solid yellows

1930s Duncan Beginner's Yoyo in Black and Beautifully Aged Yellow Paint man in chaps I can almost imagine itI found this Duncan yoyo in Pennsylvania and it struck me as a very beautiful thing as well as endless amusement! The yellow paint on it is really glorious, as is the wear to it. And it is a very excellent one to yoyo with. Feels to me like high time to bring yoyo ing back as an art and a pastime. This makes me very happy, a perfect little thing. 2 1 16" d x 1 1 4", perfectly worn, original string, works perfectly.
