DESCRIPTION:
Featured are evocative colour photos and histories of scooters from the early 1900s through today. From popular makes like Vespa, Cushman, and Japan, to less-celebrated examples from around the globe, this unique salute to the motorscooter provides as fun a ride as its subject.. Not since their heyday in the 1950s and 60s have motorscooters enjoyed the kind of following they do today
Scooter Mania With the scooter again enjoying a popular upsurge, this fascinating illustrated history shows the origins and variations of this intriguing form of personal transport. Born during the Great Depression and conquering the world after World War II, scoots remain primary family transportation in the developing world and great ways to get around ever more congested cities in Europe and the Americas. They might be "babe magnets" or not, but they do get great milage.. Bill Boggs said Dated, but still worth reading.. A bit dated, but if you love scooters it is great way to see the full scope of their impact here in America. Scooters are not as popular here as in Europe, but for those who ride them nothing else will do. This book is for that person, the rider who loves his scooter.. Fun book! Great stories, lots of good photos. Enjoyed reading it, and will keep it on the coffee table, or pass it around my scooter club.
