Once known as "Kernal Kleenup" and "Inspector Homes," this little man with the hammer helped customers identify the Western Exterminator company in their yellow pages.

This figure, designed by Vaughn Kaufman -- an art department employee of the phone company at that time -- became instantly recognizable to consumers. But his name never stuck, and he's known only as "the little man with the hammer," who's about to pounce on that pesky mouse!

Here he's depicted in a very large statuette.
