My name is Alwyn Botha, a passionate South African Russell yo-yo collector, researcher, and author with a keen interest in preserving the history of Russell yo-yos and their iconic Coca-Cola promotional campaigns.

Through years of dedicated research, collecting, and collaboration with fellow collectors and former campaign representatives, I have documented the fascinating history of Russell yo-yos in South Africa.

My book, South African Russell Yo-Yo History, is the result of this passion and dedication, offering collectors and enthusiasts a detailed historical reference filled with photographs, rare examples, and valuable information.

My goal is to preserve and share this unique part of South Africa's promotional and collecting history with enthusiasts around the world.
