Oh 2005! You came and went. And I completely missed out on this Limited Edition Cinnamon tin with Shag scooter art. Sigh . . .

Here we have a scooter that’s a jewelry holder to keep your jewelry safe and sound. There are coated holes and hooks for hanging and storing jewelry like earrings, bracelets, necklaces and rings. It comes in either orange/red or purple red, measures 13″ x 12″ and costs $34.95.

Here are some Vespas you can park in your living room without inhaling all those nasty gas fumes. Prices range from $30.00 to $39.99. The gold fenderlight comes in a variety of other colors. To see all of the scooter wall decals we’ve posted about, try the “search” box on the right.

Thanks to Julie G. for these finds!

This is a really great looking toy that you might be able to find on eBay every now and then. But alas, it’s pretty rare – even though it’s a reproduction. Still with tin toys going for prices as much as full-scale vintage scooter (unrestored, natch), this might be worth looking for. She measures approximately 6.5″ long and made in India. I checked into the toy company listed on the box (TTC Toys) but they’re out of business.

Thanks to Julie G. for this unique find!

The Museum of Modern Art in New York (MOMA) always has some of the coolest Christmas cards around. I never in my wildest thought we’d be lucky enough to get a scooter in their line-up! These cards measure an impresive 4.75h x 5″w and stand up on their own for display. They come 8 to a box and cost $15.95.

We featured some Perry the Platypus (from the show “Phineas and Ferb”) recently and here he is again in this very adorable Chrtistmas ornament. This is well priced at just $9.50 and measures 3″ high and 2 3/4″. It is made out of resin.

Okay – POP QUIZ! – which real-life scooter do you think Perry’s cartoon scooter most resembles?

This is a bit of a stretch as far a “scooters” go but it’s so unique we couldn’t pass up posting about it. Besides, this is a bit of rare swag you can own!

This “eco-friendly” paper print is made of 100% post consumer recycled paper and soy ink. It measures 20″ X 16″ and is $49.99 from the wonderful folks at Modcloth.com. I darkened the bottom photo to show detail better. Looks like that’s a poodle on the left but what the heck is that on the right? A small dog?

It was five years ago today that we made our first post!

Where’s our cake? ((stamping foot)) We want cake!

I am a cat person but I think I will need at least the bottoms for putzing around the house. This adorable pj set has well drawn multi-colored Vespas with an assortment of dogs sitting on them. Looks like bulldogs, poodles, labradors, some terriers, etc. The set is $54.95 and the bottoms are $34.95.
