I really like these wall appliques. They remind me a lot of a sixties-seventies illustration aesthetic. So why not create a whole traffic jam? $9.74 at Kmart.
Thanks to Julie G. for this find!

This sculpture is entitled “Roman Holiday.” Let’s start off with the price. This has to be the single most expensive ScooterSwag item we’ve ever posted. This limited edition figurine is $1,980.00. And it’s on sale from $2,200. But this is definitely a pedigreed collectors piece from artist Giuseppe Armani. She measures an impressive 17″ tall and is handmade of porcelain and hand painted in Florence. And she is part of a limited edition run of 3000 pieces and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
Thanks to Julie G. for this unusual find!

They rescued a 1985 Vespa PK50 scooter and then covered it with football stickers from the 1970s through to the 1990s. Want it? Then contact them. It might be for sale. “Don’t ask, don’t get” is my motto:

My apologies for getting these great finds out after Easter. *cringing shame*
But there is always next year, right? For your post-Easter pleasure we have Snoopy and Woodstock and his weird egg scooter, a preppy scooter riding bunny art print and the Precious Moments bunny-child carefully delivering an egg. Happy (belated) Easter!
(And thanks to Julie G. and Melissa M. for these finds.)

This Week’s Rare Bit O’Swag:
Actor Sam Lee on Scooter
Posted by Tracy under Art , Figurines , ToysNo Comments
This action figure was released back in 2001-2002 and toy boutique Ninyoushi found one last one in their warehouse. Created by Hong Kong artist, Eric So, it’s a rendition of actor Sam Lee as a vinyl figure. You can pose Sam Lee to stand alone or sit on the scooter as it includes interchangeable legs. Scooter and Sam Lee are both packaged separately in boxes. But come together as a set. They measure approximately 6″ tall. $110.00.

From the ultra hip online shop “Girls Can Tell,” Philadelphia artist Sara Selepouchin draws careful but charming diagrams of some of the more fetishized technology like cameras, airplanes and of course two-stroke scooters. Then she carefully screen prints them on a variety of objects. Her scooter design is available on bags, coasters, and even printed on a vintage book page as frameable art.
Thanks to Cassie for these great finds.
NEWS FLASH – Sara got in touch with us and her oven mitt ($14) is no longer out of stock! And it’s available in black and red. See the revised link below:
