 The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum recently unveiled a bobblehead figurine of California Governor Gavin Newsom. The bobblehead is the first of the Golden State’s governors to be accepted into the museum. Newsom has been at the forefront of efforts to stop the spread of the coronavirus pandemic, earning him significant praise both within the state and nationally.

 The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum will be donating $5 from every bobblehead sold, to the ‘Protect The Heroes’ fund in support of the 100 Million Mask Challenge. The Hall of Fame and Museum has raised over $160,000 through the sale of Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx bobbleheads. 

The bobbleheads are only available through the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum’s online store. Each figurine is $25 plus a flat-rate shipping charge of $8 per order and will ship in July. On a base bearing his name, the bobblehead features Newsom wearing a suit and standing at a podium as he makes an announcement during a press briefing. The bobblehead of Governor Newsom joins bobbleheads of Wisconsin’s Governor Tony Evers, New York’s Governor Andrew Cuomo, and Ohio’s Governor Mike DeWine which are all being released today April 29th. 

“During these unprecedented times, we want to continue to raise funds for an amazing cause while putting a smile on people’s faces with bobbleheads,” National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum co-founder and CEO Phil Sklar said, “We received a lot of requests to make a bobblehead of Governor Newsom and other Governors who have been instrumental in the continued fight against COVID-19, so we’re excited to unveil our newest creations. “

The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, is located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and opened to the public February 2019.
