Tony the Tiger |
Kellogg's introduced Tony to the world in 1952 to
promote their Sugar Frosted Flakes. His original designer was children's
book illustrator Martin Provinsen. Tony has undergone many changes in
his appearance over the years. He has had a new head, eye colour change,
grown in size, and has become more muscular. Tony's voice ( "They're
Grrrreat!") is that of Thurl Ravenscroft.
His wife was known as Mrs. Tony or Mama Tony. In
1952, Tony's son, Tony Jr was introduced into the campaign and became the
trademark of Kellogg's Frosted Rice. In 1974, (the Chinese year of the tiger), Tony also had a daughter named Antoinette. Since 1981, Tony's face
can be seen on the Kellogg's hot air balloon.
