Duncan General Lee

Last Friday I was playing poker and one of the other guys noticed my yoyo, started talking about one he has and got his wife to send him a picture on the spot.
I’d never heard of the General Lee before and it looks super cool so I figured I’d share! Here’s the photo.

Connected to The Dukes of Hazzard TV show?

I assume so with the tire/wheel motif. The WB likely stands for Warner Brothers I’m guessing? I wonder what the story was behind this team-up, whether it was WB who approached Duncan to do a promotion or Duncan who obtained permission from WB to cash in on the popularity of the show.

These were just Duncan Wheels and there are several variants. They have a nice weight to them and modded ones from the late nineties were the precursor to the Freehand.
