Some news just in: World of Clubbed Thumbs can confirm that the late Russian Author, Alexander Solzhenitsyn, most probably had at least one BDD thumb (on his right hand).
According to poster, Mark:
I remember seeing an interview with Alexander Solzhenitsyn, the Russian author, back in the 80s. They showed a close-up of his hands in his lap, and he had two clubbed thumbs!
These pictures are the best I could find from a google image search:
Alexander Solzhenitsyn: BDD with brains.

the reason one of my thumbs is clubbed is because i repeatedly as a child accidentally would get my hand jammed in doors and shit.
like i got it jammed in my dads old car door and the door was jammed and wouldnt open for like a minute so it wrecked my thumb!!
No one really notices it unless i show them hahahaha.
