In the Middle Ages, members of the noble class used arsenic to poison those
who stood in their way. Many of those same nobles found out that by taking
small amounts of arsenic every day, they could build up a resistance to it. A side
effect was that their hair turned white. People soon began to associate white hair
with nobility. In time, the nobles stopped using arsenic as a weapon. However,
the tradition of white hair signifying a high station in life continues today. In the
English courts, judges and other officials wear white wigs.

Financial losses at the end of the boom, and a costly lawsuit to protect the yo-yo
trademark, forced the Duncan family out of business in the late 1960s. Flambeau
Products, which made Duncan's plastic models, bought the company and still
owns it today
