Anyone ever find a good source for the older Vespa poster? I am looking for some of them, especially the ones with the scantily clad young ladies. Funny that they were scandalous in their day, and now we find them quaint. Helping decorate an office. PG

Many very good scooter posters at www.art.com . There are more of the tight-sweater variety than scantily-clad, however.

Loverly. But the ones I am seeking are not photographic models but drawings. Female, often close to looking like Vargas girls-if you are old enough to remember the ones from the early playboy mags. Usually a bit windblown, skirt askew or something. Would be great fun to hang several of them in the office. PG

Here's a few for your viewing pleasure from my vast archive of goofy mc/scooter stuff, but sorry, I have no idea where prints of them may be available. These are shown at 100% size that I have them on file at. I only have them for my own reference. Nerd emoticon

Sorry to tease with what may be unabtainium, but at least people will know exactly what you're talking about......but then again, I can't help but feel that such great retro images must be available someplace.

yes! , those are exactly the ones I am looking for. SO far no success in finding actual posters-again original or reproduction- but I will keep searching. I just think they are so evocative of a time and and a mind set. PG

Don't give up yet! Check out Scooterproducts in the UK. They are showing tin sign versions of those posters available
here . You'll have to scroll down to see them.

PHILLIP go on ebay and type in vespa posters there are a ton of them. Try using vintage vespa posters also. Good luck.
