This Yo-Yo is a Whirl-King was made from the mid 40s up to the early 60s. I think the 50s is a good guess as to when this one was made. It has two red halves, which is less common than the usual red and blue.
Made by the Sock It Toy company. Made in USA
It is in fair condition, some wear on the stamp and minot scuffs throughout. All in all not terrible for an od throw like this one.
