	Bobblehead doll - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A bobblehead doll, also known as a bobbing head doll or wobbler, is a type of collectible doll.
		Although bobblehead dolls have been made with a wide variety of figures such as vampiric cereal pitchman Count Chocula, beat generation author Jack Kerouac, and Nobel-prize-winning geneticist James D. Watson, they are most associated with athletes, and baseball players in particular.
		The exact origin of the bobblehead doll is unknown, though first known reference to a bobblehead doll in literature was in Nikolai Gogol's famous 1842 short story "The Overcoat".
