1. Title: "The Michelin Man's Playful Ride: A 1910s Advertisement for Michelin Tyres on a Bicycle" In this charming advertisement from the 1910s, the iconic Michelin Man, known as Bibendum or Mottin in France, is depicted in a light-hearted moment as he gracefully rides a bicycle. Dressed in his signature blue, white, red, and orange attire, the Michelin Man exudes an aura of joy and excitement, showcasing the best and most affordable transport solution of the era - Michelin tyres. The advertisement, which originated from the Mottin factory in Elbeuf, France, highlights the superior quality and durability of Michelin tyres. The comic and humorous image of the Michelin Man riding a bicycle is not only visually appealing but also conveys the message that Michelin tyres can provide a fun and reliable transportation experience. The use of the bicycle in the advertisement is significant, as it was a popular mode of transportation during the early 1900s. Michelin tyres were known for their excellent grip and resistance to punctures, making them the go-to choice for cyclists. The advertisement's playful tone and the Michelin Man's cheerful expression effectively convey the brand's commitment to providing the best and cheapest tyres for its customers. This vintage advertisement is a testament to the rich history of Michelin tyres and their enduring legacy. The image of the Michelin Man on a bicycle continues to evoke a sense of nostalgia and reminds us of the joy and freedom that comes with the simple act of riding a bicycle. Mary Evans Picture Library/Onslow Auctions Limited is proud to offer this rare and captivating advertisement print for sale, allowing collectors and enthusiasts to add a piece of automotive and advertising history to their collection.
