In 1916 Planters held a contest to create a company logo. A fourteen year-old schoolboy named Antonio Gentile won the contest with his drawing of a Peanut Man.
If I ever get my time machine to work I will have to go back in time and kill this child. Or at least convince him not to unleash this evil peanut overlord upon the world. If he could only see the evil that his creation has wrought through history he would have never put pencil to paper.

Cool info....
We still think the "Mouse" is Much more Evil....
And I bet Planters only paid him peanuts (literally) for the rights to that trademark. Should have held out for a percentage of the corporate profits, kid.
