If someone asks for your photo and after some days return you your mirror image in the form of a sculpture looking like a doll, what will be your reaction? Will you be stunned? Or surprised? Or amazed? Or you will be nodding your head in disbelief? And that’s not the end of the story; as soon as you try to touch its head to get a feel if it’s real or not, the head starts bobbling around. I will bet you will either laugh your heart out or you will jump on the couch with the mixed feeling of fear, disbelieve and a bit of excitement. Well whatever you think, all this fantasy is possible given the name of “bobblehead”.
The concept of bobblehead first started in 1842 in the Nikola Gogol’s short story “The Overcoat” but the modern bobblehead story starts from the 1960’s Major League Baseball in which papier-mâché bobbleheads were made. The Beatles bobblehead set is one of the most elite and famous bobbleheads of all time. Since then they were in fashion in the 1960s but perished in the 70s before making a comeback in the 90s. Nowadays they are largely used by the sports (majorly Baseball) and the entertainment industry. In an episode of the famous TV show “Scrubs”, Turks bribed Dr. Kelso with his look alike bobblehead and I seriously hope that I am not mistaken that Scrubs is a famous TV serial (which I think I am). Nevertheless the bobblehead is one of the ultimate source of entertainment (I am really confident about this one).
