Mr. Peanut is the advertising logo of Planters, an American snack-food company. He consists of a drawing of a peanut in its shell dressed in the formal clothing of an old-fashioned gentleman: a top hat, monocle, spats, and a cane.
Mr. Peanut is based on a drawing by a Virginia schoolboy, Anthony Gentile, who won a $5 prize in a 1916 contest for his "little peanut person."
