A Folded Italian Advertising Poster (measures 19 3/4" x 27 1/2" [50 x 70 cm]) (Learn More) Vespa (the name means wasp in Italian) is an Italian brand of scooter manufactured by Piaggio from 1946 to the present. From their inception, Vespa scooters have been known for their painted, pressed steel unibody which combines a complete cowling for the engine, a flat floorboard and a prominent front fairing into a structural unit. The Vespa has evolved from a single model motor scooter to a full line of scooters today. In 1953, the movie "Roman Holiday" featured scenes of Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn riding on a Vespa, which gave the company worldwide exposure! If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Important Added Info: Note that this is an extremely rare poster. We have never auctioned one in all our years of auctioning!
