Manny Flavors: Former Teen Burger

Field review by the editors.

Swansea, Massachusetts

The Eskimo King frozen dairy drive-in opened in 1957. Years later, probably in the late 1960s, it acquired its fiberglass mascot, a grinning teenaged boy holding aloft an ice cream cone. The boy is an A&W Root Beer Teen Burger statue, modified by the manufacturer, International Fiberglass, into its present frosty form, complete with overalls and an extended lip-licking "yum" tongue.

In 2000 Eskimo King held a contest to name for its Teen Burger statue. The winning name was "Manny Flavors."
