History[]

Daws Butler provided the original voice of the Cap'n until his death in 1988. From 1991 to 2007, George J. Adams voiced him. Author Philip Wylie wrote a series of short stories, Crunch and Des, beginning in the 1940s, which featured a similarly named character, Captain Crunch Adams. The character was created by Allan Burns who later became known for co-creating The Munsters and The Mary Tyler Moore Show. The commercials themselves were originally produced by Jay Ward Productions. Vinton Studios produced a claymation ad during the 1980s.
