World’s Largest Bobblehead
Jacques is a 35-foot-tall French chef. The mustachioed culinary artist always wears a red jacket, white pants, and a chef’s hat and is always holding two cheeseburgers. He’s made of fiberglass and is billed as the “World’s Largest Bobblehead.” He’s noggin wasn’t always nodding, though. When he was constructed in the 1960s as a mascot for a local restaurant, his head was attached firmly to his shoulders. However, when the 1970s the restaurant closed, he was taken down and neglected for roughly half a century. When a local manufacturer, Terry Byrne, acquired Jacques to restore him, his head was off, inspiring the decision to give him a bobblehead. Byrne worked with an engineer to design a one-of-a-kind custom spring that could support his massive head. He now lives at the Buckeye Express Diner at 810 OH-97 in Bellville, just outside Mansfield.
