Immediate Source of Acquisition
The library's Green Bag bobblehead collection was displayed in law librarian Kent Olson's office for many years. Upon his retirement in 2021, Olson transferred the collection to Special Collections. Staff continued to build upon the collection through purchasing missing figurines from eBay and through the traditional method: redeeming certificates, printed in the Green Bag journal or received in postcard form, at the office of O'Melveny & Myers (Washington, DC) for new figurines.
