He was just called the Town Clown.
There was no Mr. Fred on Captain Kangaroo.There were only three characters named Mr. anything:Mr. Baxter, played by actor James E. Wall - seen from 1974-1981.Mr. Green Jeans, played by actor Hugh Brannum - seen from 1955-1984.Mr. Moose, portrayed by puppeteer Cosmo Allegretti - seen from 1976-1981.This is not exactly true. There was a blobby cartoon guy on a screen that the Captain would talk to and his name was Fred.
He is a fictional character played by the now deceased actor ( for lack of a better name- Bob Keeshan).
hey baby
