While to the untrained eye fingerbobs may appear to have been simply cones of construction paper mounted on the forefinger of a bearded American, to a generation of British youth they

were far more than that. The grey paper mouse (Fingermouse), to those with a seventies youth, represents instead the libelous rumour that the aforementioned hirsuite Yank was later arrested for molestation. Apparently, his whiskered finger had been on a most unmouselike adventure, or so the rumours went.
