This sweet shirt invites you to "join the movement" and it features the well-known mascot of the Michelin Tire company, the Michelin Man, or as he's known in France, Bibendum. The Michelin Man is believed to be one of the oldest trademarks still in active use, with his origins dating all the way back to the Lyon Exhibition of 1894.

While attending the exhibition, the company's founders Edouard and Andre Michelin conceived the idea for the mascot after seeing a large stack of tires that resembled a human figure. Andre later brought this concept to the cartoonist Marius Rossillon, also known as O'Galop, who proceeded to draw the first ever iteration of the now famous mascot.  

The back of this tee promotes the C&D Auto Center, which is the name of a small auto repair shop in Melbourne, Florida. The business has been offering auto repair services to the local community since 1968.

Fits like a modern unisex adult small. There are some tiny spots on the front, see pics.
