Jumpman or Silhouette Man? pix

[shoe pheene]

Who knew what the Jumpman was called before it was a Jumpman not me but any guesses? It was called Silhouette Man. This is shown on page 94 in the latest issue of the Sole Collector magazine. If u look at the edge of the poster of MJ with Bugs it says Air Jordan and Silhouette Man are trademarks of nike,inc 1992. Wow I didn't know this how many of u out there knew this. I sure didn't If some one could post the pix that would be great thanx

edit*
The reason why it's called Silhouette because the symbol is actually MJ doing a Silhouette pose. Many people (myself included) used to think he was in the middle of a dunk.

My bad for the Ether earlier.

When did the Jumpman name take effect? I'm guessing 97 when JB was concieved and they gave a new name to the patent or something.
