Mr. Peanut
Mr. Peanut is the advertising logo and mascot of Planters peanuts.
He consists of a drawing of an anthropomorphic peanut in its shell dressed in the formal clothing of an old-fashioned gentleman: a top hat, monocle, white gloves, spats, and a cane.
Since his conception, Mr. Peanut has appeared in many TV commercials as an animated cartoon character.
More recent commercials have shown him computer animated in a real-world setting.
His appearances are often accompanied by an elegant accented narrator, and throughout his extensive television life, Mr. Peanut has rarely spoken.
