A splendid and comprehensive themed collection of memorabilia and automobilia dedicated to the history and celebrations of the iconic Michelin Man (Bibendum), ideal for advanced automotive collectors and closely connected to the history of the Cuneo plant. The lot consists of 6 pieces in total, all preserved in excellent or like-new condition:
1. Official Michelin Italiana 75th Anniversary Commemorative Plaque (1907–1982):
• Elegant solid satin-finished 925 silver plaque weighing approximately 54 grams, set in its original dark blue fabric case. It bears the inscription “1907–1982 / 75° / Michelin Italiana,” with an engraved logo and colored enamel (green/red/black). The “925” silver hallmark and the silversmith’s maker’s mark are clearly visible, stamped in the lower-right corner.
2. Vintage 75th Anniversary Wristwatch:
• Commemorative promotional quartz watch, with a chrome-plated metal case and stainless steel back. Custom dial featuring the 75th anniversary logo. Comes with a black genuine leather strap (Cuir Veritable) with snap fasteners and its original elongated black hard case. Note: battery needs replacing.
3. “35th Anniversary of the Cuneo Plant” Commemorative 925 Silver Keychain (1963–1998):
• A highly rare piece weighing approximately 18 grams, made by the renowned “Gioielli Seimandi Cuneo” jewelry store and created in 1998 to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the historic Piedmontese plant. The 925 silver hallmark and maker’s mark are on the back of the pendant. Decorated with colored enamel, it is kept in its original blue hard case, with the Seimandi company’s gold logos inside.
4. Historical Book, “The Golden Century of the Michelin Man”:
• Splendid hardcover volume with dust jacket, written by Olivier Darmon and published by Hoëbeke / Mondadori (1997 edition). More than 140 pages filled with illustrations, period posters, and color photographs tracing the mascot’s history and graphic evolution. Excellent condition.
5. Special Company Magazine “Orizzonti” (1998 – Bibendum Year):
• Special print edition published by Michelin Italiana for Bibendum’s centenary (1898–1998). The magazine is exceptionally complete and still contains, intact and unattached, the full set of die-cut historical postcards (including the famous reproduction of O’Galop’s original 1898 “Nunc est bibendum” poster) and the accompanying brochure.
6. Michelin “United Team of Engineering” Promotional T-Shirt:
• Collectible white T-shirt made by Uneek Classic (model UC301), size XL. The shirt features the Michelin Man logo on the chest and is new, unworn, and still sealed in its original factory cellophane (deadstock).
