This is an image of particular interest: it was used in Michelin's 1955 anniversary brochure (50 years since Michelin's UK company was established). The interest is in the way that the image was 'doctored' when published: the tyre warehouse (centre right) was doubled in size, the rubber production workshops were expanded (centre) and the new steel cord production buildings that had been built, were added! |
