Seems that i missed this until now.
They guy who is credited with the invention of the frisbee: Walter Fredrick Morrison, has died.
If there is a toy that is less ubiquitous throughout the US and western Europe, I don't know what it is.
Not a hero, not a criminal, just a guy who had a good idea and took the time and effort to develop it.
A perfect American Success story.
I suspect you mean more, not less, ubiquitous. I can think of any number of toys that are not as popular as Frisbees.
