Inflatable Characters Welcome Guests to the Minnesota Historical Society

Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox at MN Historical SocietyInflatable Paul Bunyan & Babe Characters Greet Guests

What better welcoming committee to the Minnesota Historical Society than Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox? These legends live on as bigger-than-life, cold-air inflatable characters that stand 18-feet tall.

The Society was looking for greater visibility and promotion for the History Center's Then Now Wow exhibit. According to Laura Geffre-Rick, Community Outreach & Sponsorship Manager, "People love the inflatable! It's been a great photo op for History Center guests."

In addition to doing meet-and-greets in front of the Society, the cold air inflatable characters also make appearances to fairs and festivals, grand openings, parades and other events.

 While both Landmark Creations and the Historical Society are both in Minnesota, the Society could have chosen to work with any number of companies across the country. They selected Landmark Creations because they wanted to go local, and they liked the high-quality inflatables they saw in our online portfolio. Have a look for yourself. You just might see something that sparks a brilliant idea.

What Others Say About Landmark Creations


"[There was] fun, excitement, and encouragement for everyone to actually walk under/through [the arch] and it worked.  We have cheerleaders and small children at the finish line by the arch handing out stickers, saying ‘I did it.’ Before we had the arch, [people] would straggle in anywhere."

- Jackie Allen, March of Dimes

"[The logo] helped us create a better presence, improved foot traffic, became a photo backdrop and helped us have the best-looking booth at the events,"

- Laura Repreza, KTLM Telemundo 40

"Our tunnel was also a great addition to our pre-game tradition: the Wildcat walk. Our city shuts down three blocks of downtown, and we have hundreds of fans lining the streets with a police escort, while we walk to the stadium."

- Sam Baker, Head Football Coach at Waconia High School

"We usually have to keep the arch up for at least 30 minutes after our races since so many people want to get their photos taken with it!"

- Art Boulet, Muddy Monk

“He’s fantastic! And already promised to four stores... Thank everyone for all their great work.”

- Precision Tune Auto Care

"Thank you so much for getting the arch to us in time for our event!  The arch looked great and we couldn't of been happier with the look.  Looking forward to ordering another arch from you for our 2013 events!"

- Holly Vittengl, Gladiator Assault Challenge
