Michelin Man

Bibendum, commonly referred to in English as the Michelin Man or Michelin Tire Man, is the official mascot of the Michelin tire company. A humanoid figure consisting of stacked white tires, it was introduced at the Lyon Exhibition of 1894 where the Michelin brothers had a stand. He is one of the world's oldest trademarks still in active use.

The slogan Nunc est bibendum is taken from Horace's Odes.
He is also referred to as Bib or Bibelobis.
