MICHELIN - c.1926 MOTORCYCLE Tire - Exceptional original lithographed advertising poster. Generous size: 89.5 x 59.5 cm, including the frame border. “Paris-Imp.Henon 12-26” - Excellent condition - Featuring fresh, well-preserved colors. There is a slight fading of the white on the Bibendum, as well as scattered signs of wear (small spots, minor perforations, and localized tears, mainly along the edges and occasionally within the image) These age-related imperfections in no way detract from the superb visual impact of this vintage piece. Due to its large size, this cardboard has been placed in a frame to ensure rigidity; it is not mounted and remains loose on its wooden backing. A masterful composition with strong visual impact, depicting the Michelin Man riding a motorcycle at full speed, a cigar between his lips. The figure stands out against a flamboyant background with shades of red, orange, and yellow. In 1886, André Michelin and his brother Édouard Michelin took over the family business, Barbier-Daubrée. On May 28, 1889, in Clermont-Ferrand, the company’s name was changed to “Michelin et Cie.” Puy-de-Dôme/Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes The AI-generated atmospheric photo is presented for illustrative purposes only to help you appreciate the object’s proportions in context.
