Bibendum; Michelin Man
My father-in law bought this original Michelin Man sign (Bibendum in French) for me in a French street market about 20 years ago as a birthday present and it was immediately installed on the outside wall of a workshop attached to our French home. When we last visited the house in the summer of 2020 I realised that, because of Covid, it would be a long time before we returned so I decided to bring it back to the UK. Original full sized versions like this have become valuable and I didn't want to risk losing it.
The following link provides the fascinating background of this iconic figure. It's well worth a read:
