Hi, I´m Mr. Potato Head. George Lerner invented and patented me in 1952. Based on an earlier toy called “make a face†that used a real potato, George designed me as a prize for cereal premiums. I was sold to the Hassenfeld Brothers of Rhode Island, who owned Hasbro Inc., the toy company.
I was the first toy that was advertised on television. In 1985, I received four write-in votes in the mayoral election in Boise, Idaho.
now that it´s time..
I´m going to be President
