Scootermania - A Celebration of Style and Speed
Scootermania celebrates the superbly simple vehicles that are so symbolic of freedom, style and the modern world. Originating in the 1940s in Milan and Pontedera, Tuscany, the scooter became an enduring transport choice for young people and urban environments.
Early chapters look at scooter racing and long-distance attempts, and their role as an anti-tank weapon in the French army. There is engaging coverage of place of scooters in popular culture from films, music and fashion including the way that a host of disparate groups has made the bikes their own - from the British Mods of the 1960s and 1980s to their role in American and Japanese fashion and in their Italian homeland.
The evolution and design of classic models as the Vespa 150 GS and the Lambretta Li 150 Series 3 are covered while scooter stars such as Enrico Piaggio and Georges Monneret are celebrated in their own words. The book also includes a number of specially photographed features on modern scooter designers, collectors and artists.

Faszination Motorroller - Die Weltgeschichte der Scooter
Mit der Vespa fing alles an ... Von wegen! Obwohl die Vespa der 1940er-Jahre heute Inbegriff des klassischen Scooters ist, begann die Geschichte des Rollers doch viel früher. Bereits 1915 stellte der amerikanische Hersteller Autoped den ersten Motorroller her, ursprünglich für Kinder gedacht. 1919 folgte der deutsche Krupp-Roller, danach das Golem-Sesselrad von DKW. Wie es weiterging? Das erfahren Sie in unserer Weltgeschichte der Motorroller.

Faszination Motorroller - Die Weltgeschichte der Scooter
Österreich erlebte zu Beginn der 50er Jahre einen Motorrad- und Rollerboom sondergleichen. Die Wirtschaft blühte, die Kaufkraft stieg und das Motorrad war das ideale Fortbewegungsmittel für den Weg zur Arbeit und in der Freizeit. Das war nun die Stunde der heimischen Produzenten wie HMW, KTM, Lohner und Puch. Die Pionier-Unternhmen Puch und Lohner entstanden bereits Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts, HMW und KTM etablierten sich später, nämlich in den 50er Jahren. Sie alle entwickelten Motorräder und Roller mit zeitloser Schönheit und Eleganz.
Dieses anschauliche Bilderbuch mit einer individuellen Auswahl der wichtigsten Modelle dieser Zeit ermöglicht einen nostalgischen Blick zurück in die Vergangenheit, in eine Zeit großer österreichischer Ingenieurskunst.
