As the title says, my parents went antique shopping and since I’ve been into yoyos lately, they decided to grab me some and stopped by my place after work. They seem to range from around the 1950s up to 2013 for the one. Very kind of them. I love them! Especially the Velvet… I now need to collect more!! Here’s a photo, hopefully you all might have information or just plain like to see them. Enjoy! ![1000002392](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/4/f/74fc913293fd5ebc92897948979a099f12fd1ece.jpeg) ---

I know, I would be lying if I wasn’t blown away by it. In all its bright pink glory! It throws pretty well, too! Snappy return. I told Jake he needs to make these… Maybe next years Slingshot? LOL ---

That is quite the haul!! Nice find. I’m always looking in antique shops but always come up empty. ---

Say, those are pretty neat! I’m pretty much convinced that nobody in my town has ever thrown a yo-yo, seeing as how I never find any. But, boy, oh boy—that Velvet is really something else; I’ve never seen a thing like it! ---

Nor have I but I WILL be hunting these things down! Apparently, someone in the YYBC discord informed me there’s another, newer version of them (unsure of year) so I’ll have to be on the hunt!
