During WWII, he volunteered for the Navy and served as a radar technician on the Batfish Submarine, where he invented his first toys. In 1949, he sold the Yakity Yak Teeth, the first of more than 800 classic toys over his 80 year career as a toy inventor. In 2003, Eddy was inducted into the Toy Industry Hall of Fame.
