History / About
The Imperial Toy Corporation Hi-Tech Professional Glo-Yo (No. 7249), circa 1985-1987, is a plastic, glow-in-the-dark, tournament-shaped yo-yo with a cotton string, fixed axle and starburst response, made in Korea. The Yo-Yo Museum says the glow version is hard to find today while the non-glow version of the same model is far more common. Original retail price was $1.50 USD. Imperial Toy Corporation was founded in April 1969 by Fred Kort, and its yo-yos often carry a detailed imperial crown mark.
