Bibendum the Michelin Man ~ Je t'aime Raison d'être A unique solid version of the original drivers friend and companion... the sitting Bibendum. This version of the sitting Bibendum comes with the embossed lettering "Michelin" (not a painted or stuck on label) across his chest. Michelin Man (Bibendum) was originally based on the art work of the French illustrators O'Gallop and DDB Needham. The Michelin Man we all know today owes more to the work Walter Storozok, the creative director of Michelin North America. This version is made from a solid block of high density polyurethane and has been designed and manufactured based on the original artwork of Storozok. He was created by using an innovative 3D CAD tracing method, (no hand cut guess work etc.,) thus re-creating the illustrator's original artistic intentions T are many "rare" and authentic Bibendum's kicking about, how many... who knows? Since we made the master and the mould we know how many we've made, see the FAQ below. This version is ideal for a desktop or a vehicle interior, someone to watch over you as you chug along through life, and though fully weatherproof probably way too precious to be left out in the wind and rain. Comes with a commemorative monogrammed stand (chrome color), with the embossed wording "Bibendum born 1898" along with a silver steel support pole.
