Little Rascals
Our Gang, also known as The Little Rascals, was a long-lived series of American comedy short films about a group of poor neighborhood children and the adventures they had together. The series, created by comedy producer Hal Roach, was one of the best-known and most successful in cinema history.  It was noted for showing children behaving in a relatively natural way. While child actors are often groomed to imitate adult acting styles, steal scenes, or deliver "cute" performances, Hal Roach and original director Robert F. McGowan worked to film the unaffected, raw nuances apparent in regular kids.

Alfalfa Bobblehead

Alfalfa was a character created by Hal Roach who produced the famous Our Gang (Little Rascals) series of short movies that was a smash hit from 1934 until it ended in 1944.

Alfalfa was played by Carl Dean Switzer, who had been discovered by Hal Roach after his parents took him to the movie studio and he had spontaneously jumped up onto a table in the cafeteria and began singing. This brilliant little entertainer who obviously knew how to impress a movie producer was only 6 years old when he landed his first starring role. America will not forget this cute kid with freckles, hair slicked back and parted straight down the middle with the strangest tuft of hair at the back of his part sticking straight up in the air. Take note, bobblehead collectors – there are only a small number of these remaining because they are not being manufactured anymore.

The Alfalfa bobblehead is made out of lightweight polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic, a thermoplastic polymer that is commonly used to make figurines because it can be molded into any shape and it is compatible with a wide variety of different paint finishes. Your Alfalfa bobblehead gift will be packed and shipped in a colorful cardboard collector's box with a cellophane display window.

Spanky Bobblehead

George Robert Phillips "Spanky" McFarland starred in the Little Rascals (Our Gang) series of short movies that was a smash hit from 1934 until it ended in 1944. After his discovery by producer Hal Roach at the age of three, he quickly became the de facto leader of the gang who usually came up with a creative idea to catch the gang’s interest. After the series ended, McFarland was unable to find work in the movie business because he had been typecast as a child personality. In 1952, he joined the U.S. Air Force and after retiring, he used his fame and celebrity status to help raise money for charities, primarily by participating in golf tournaments. In 1964, Spanky McFarland and Jackie Cooper were honored as the only two Our Gang members to receive a star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame.

Only a limited number of Spanky bobbleheads were produced and they are no longer being manufactured so the best time to get one is right now! These bobbleheads were made out of lightweight polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic, a thermoplastic polymer that is commonly used to make figurines because it can be molded into any shape and it is compatible with a wide variety of different paint finishes.
