'''Speedee''' is a former mascot of McDonald's. He is a chef with a burger for a head who runs at high speeds. Due to a low popularity, and some mistaking him for another mascot with a similar name and shape, he was phased out, and eventually replaced by Ronald McDonald.
* Speedee is still a registered trademark of McDonald's.
* Speedee never appeared in television commercials.
* Due to the relatively poor preservation of early McDonald's marketing, it is unknown if Speedee was ever copyrighted in the first place - all preserved print adverts featuring Speedee have either no copyright notice or an invalid one (such as the [https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incoming/article5695833.ece/ALTERNATES/s1227b/1950s-McDonalds-Menu.jpg print commercial featured on the infobox], which puts a copyright symbol next to Speedee but does not have a year) - however, no copyrights relating to 50s-era McDonald's were ever renewed, meaning that Speedee is public domain regardless.
