Nicola Arigliano Italy Romantic Songs
A really wonderful find of a old record never posted here before. I collect records featuring scooters myself so outta my way on eBay! ; )
A Rare Bit O’Swag:
1951 “V” Magazine Cover
A slightly awkward pose on a Vespa but unique for how early in scootering history this is – April 1951 to be exact. The magazine is Italian and the Vespa almost looks like a prototype. Or has been altered photographically?
Forward leaning.

A piece of Pisa
Here are two rat magnets that were posted on crapsouvenirs.com . It looks like they’re trying to steal the the tower of Pisa.

This Week’s Rare Bit O’Swag:
The Fabulous Wood Vespa
Many of you have probably already seen one or two photos of this incredible work of art, but finding more photos of its construction spurred me to post about it. Portuguese craftsman Carlos Alberto fashioned his Vespa from laminated wood. Taking a Vespa which had fallen into complete disrepair, he used woodcraft techniques to create a completely new body for it. The main frame of the scooter is fashioned from steam bent and laminated veneers on which the gorgeously carved body work hangs. Even the package tray and seat are made from wood!

Starbucks loves scooters
Starbucks has added another Italian Roast (aka Scooter Coffee) product to its line. Unfortunately this one has just a little pic of a scooter on the back of the can. But it’s not a bad drink. I am still waiting for someone to cover a P200 in Italian Roast stickers. I think that would look hot. Someday . . ..
