Pogo Sticks Appraisal

Assorted Pogo Sticks

This image displays two distinct pogo sticks, likely designed for recreational use. The pogo stick on the left features a blue main body, possibly constructed from aluminum or steel, with a textured blue rubber or foam grip on the handle and a similar blue textured grip for the foot area. The handle also incorporates a green foam grip section, suggesting an ergonomic design or a customizable grip. A black and white label, partially obscured but showing 'ZUMWAZ' or similar text, is visible on the blue body. The footrests are black plastic or rubber paddles. The pogo stick on the right appears to be a 'Master' brand, as indicated by the 'Master' branding in blue text on the white protective wrapping around its upper poles. This pogo stick has a more complex spring mechanism, characterized by multiple blue springs encased in a blue corrugated plastic or rubber sleeve, situated between white support poles. Its footrests are blue plastic platforms with a raised texture, also bearing 'Master' branding. Both pogo sticks show signs of moderate wear consistent with use, including scuffs, dirt, and some tearing or fraying of the white protective wrapping on the 'Master' pogo stick. The materials suggest a combination of metal (for structural components), plastic, and foam/rubber for comfort and grip. They are likely late 20th or early 21st-century recreational items. The overall condition indicates they are used but still functional, bearing a utilitarian quality associated with children's or youth outdoor play equipment.
