Awesome collection!
Nice scotrans.
Like I was saying, do not let anyone sweet talk you out of any of those without knowing value. That is a collection many of us here would drool over.

Hi -
Thanks for your responses.
I am slowing working my way through the Tom Kuhn and Tom Kuhn-BC yoyos.
I am using eBay completed sales and Hall’s Yoyo Museum site (Museum of Yo-Yo History) for the more rare yoyos.
Are the values, when listed at the Yoyo Museum close to accurate? I have found Museum’s description of design & production history in the YoYo Museum’s fascinating.
For a couple potential grins, I have posted a picture of what i believe to be a 2nd (or defective) Mandala.
Best
Scot

I wouldn’t go off the prices there. Some are really high, some are really low. The one you have below is the Snowflake Mandala, the museum has it with a value of $30. I personally feel that is REALLY low for that yoyo.

Finally after dreaming of one for nearly 10 years a 15 yo-yo Heirloom box set is mine.
The icing on the cake is that it contains one of my top 5 most wanted Kuhn’s a 3 in 1 wonder Flying camel. A very happy day indeed.

I still can’t believe I was so lucky, it popped up on the UK eBay site and I was the only bidder would you believe! ( £350 was the winning bid ) I guess there’s very few of us TK fans still left this side of the pond.
It has a somewhat different logo on the lid - see picture - all the logos I’ve seen before were fully engraved not just an outline. Does anyone know if this indicates an early or late edition?

Here’s another resent eBay find.
This Fisherman’s wharf woody was in a mixed lot of mostly Hummingbird advertising yo-yo’s.

Another great find! I might have to search up TK more often on eBay ;D
This is my personal favorite, took a lot of searching to find…
This is a version that Tom made very few of. This one resides in his personal collection:

That’s amazing! I’m glad to see Tom kept a bunch of the rarer stuff, I haven’t even seen some of those Mandalas.
