This thread didn't get much traction the first time around, but I just picked up another "uncatalogued" bobber. The center guy in the photo; what I would have called a "white base head on a green base body." I just noticed something, though...

My traditional "catalogued" white base dolls both have blue in the eyes, reddish hair and a black button on their caps. My two "uncatalogued" dolls have solid black pupils, dark brown hair and orange buttons on their caps.

Maybe these "WEREN'T" a marriage of mismatched parts but were an actual short production run made between the traditional white and green base nodders

Rob, do you know where I can get more info on bobble-heads? I have 3 gold base ones from my childhood, and would like to find out more, and possible get a few more from that era. Would be interested in finding a checklist or some documentation.

Maybe there is something more recent now.... but Tim Hunter's Book was a pretty good guide with lots of valuable info. It was the "Go To Guide" for many years. Not sure of the exact title, but am sure someone here will know.

Thanks Mark, you got me in the ballpark. Found Bobbing Head Dolls: 1960-2000 by Tim Hunter on Amazon. Looks like it's out of print, but they have several used copies. Looks like I'll pick one up soon.

You can't beat this price! This one was written by Lou Crisione - a good guy and Net54 member.

I'll see if Tim Hunter's book is still out there. I'm afaid it may have gone the way of the Malta bat book and Muchinsky pin book i.e. HTF and expensive.

Thanks Rob. Looks like I can pick up both on Amazon fairly cheap and will be a good addition to my baseball and collecting library.
