ENTITY STATUS SET TO UNDISCOUNTED (ORIGINAL EVENT CODE: BIG.); ENTITY STATUS OF PATENT OWNER: SMALL ENTITY In April 2023, the Essex Police removed several golliwog dolls displayed in the pub of the White Hart Inn in response to an alleged hate crime.

A classic contortionist act is the rag doll act: often performed in a golliwog costume, it is therefore also called the golliwogg act. Actually, who am I kidding?
