Lucky's Collectors Guide to 20th Century Yo-Yos: History & Values

Rating:
Summary: The Value is the Book Itself
Review: The first useful -and true- price guide for yo-yo collectors, it's also the perfect browsing book for us. The history needs some refining (following Donald Duncan's yo-yos after his company was taken by the courts is difficult, but the entry here was confusing even if you knew the background), but is at least 80% accurate. And you just can't beat those photos -- hundreds of photos of yo-yos forgotten or not even suspected! This book deserves to best-seller status, and to be updated each year. Buy several copies so Lucky can produce annual books for a living.

Summary: Hooray! Finally, the ultimate guide to collecting yo-yos.
Review: The guru of yo-yo collecting and writer of the collectors corner in Fiend Magazine, Lucky Meisenheimer, has made the long wait for his book worthwhile. Truly he has created the "bible" of yo-yo collecting. History, Yo-Yos, String Packs, Patches and Pins it's all there. Anyone serious about yo-yos should have this book whether they collect or not, but don't even think about calling yourself a collector if you don't have this book.

Summary: A great gift
Review: What do you get an 11-year-old boy who loves the yo-yo for his birthday, apparently this book. My son, who typically reads nothing more intense than a Batman comic was totally absorbed. I now know what my nephew will be getting for Christmas this year.
