... that Bobby the Boy with the Revolving Head (pictured) could swivel his head 180 degrees?

5x expanded by Bonkers The Clown (talk). Self nominated at 14:12, 23 October 2013 (UTC).

QPQ done. 5.1x expanded before nomination. I'm giving the benefit of the doubt that it's necessary to mention the outfit he wore while swiveling his head. The dog acrobatics claim isn't mentioned in the body or sourced anywhere. The image is tagged as PD due to publication before 1923, but several online sources say that it is a 1940 photo. The image is not in the article. I would take out "a full" from the hook; I took it out of the article x 2. EricEnfermero ^HOWDY! 09:59, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

Fine, don't use the pic then. Now sourced. ☯ Bonkers The Clown \(^_^)/ Nonsensical Babble ☯ 10:51, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

Good to go now, minus the image. I added the reference right after the hook. I missed that the first time. You might consider some sort of transition between his birth and turning his head 180 degrees, but I think that's beyond the DYK criteria. Interesting entry!
