Wham-O, the iconic all-American recreational toy brand, will release a new commemorative book marking the 70th anniversary of the company. The book, entitled "SUPER BOOK - Fantastic Tales From Inside The Fun Factory" (ISBN: 978-0692163054), takes readers on a journey through the innovation and imagination that led to the creation of some of the world's most inventive, beloved toys and games that every family has played with for the last 70 years.
"We are so honored that millions of people throughout the decades have played with our most iconic toys," says Todd Richards, President of Wham-O. "We are so fortunate to have fans of our products spreading joy everywhere, whether it be the school playground, the backyard, the beach or anywhere their heart desires. For those who have contributed to Wham-O's success over the years and those who share our love of having fun, this book was written for you."
Wham-O was co-founded by Richard Knerr and his boyhood best friend Arthur "Spud" Melin. After humble beginnings in a Southern California garage in 1948, the toy manufacturer repeatedly captured lightning in a bottle with its creative and innovative products. Wham-O gave the world the Hula Hoop and the Frisbee. The company later rolled out the Slip 'N Slide, the Superball, the Trac-Ball, Silly String, the Hacky Sack, the Boogie Board and many more.
"This book is a celebration of the company's lifelong mission to create the most fun, engaging lifestyle outdoor games and products that are enjoyed by people of all ages in every corner of the world," says Olyvia Pronin, Marketing Director at Wham-O. "It gives us the opportunity to look back on the rich history of Wham-O as we also look forward to the future."
Wham-O is releasing the book as part of the company's 70th anniversary celebration. Filled with color photos of toys through the years and other historical information, this book is the perfect companion for toy lovers, young and old, and all who appreciate the interesting stories behind every toy and game families have been playing with for the last three generations.
"SUPER BOOK" can be purchased online for $29.99 on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0692163050) and on Wham-O.com at: https://wham-o.com/brands/wham-o/super-book/
