Summary

Description
English: "Mister Bingle" at the "Celebration in the Oaks" Holiday display, City Park, New Orleans.

"Mister Bingle", a living snow-man who helped Santa Claus, originated as a character for children's Chistmas pupet shows at the local "Maison Blanche" department store. (Mister Bingle having the same "MB" initials as the store.) Maison Blanche went out of business in the 1980s, but Mister Bingle survived as a popular local Christmas character. This large Mister Bingle effigy, formerly seasonally displayed on the Maison Blanche Building fascade on Canal Street, is now part of the city's annual "Celebration in the Oaks" Christmas season display in City Park.
