An Italian Journey by Vespa (Permanent Collection of Italian Design)

By Pier Paride Vidari, Tommaso Fanfani, Silvana Annicchiarico

When it was first introduced in 1949, the Vespa scooter was an entirely new type of vehicle, the result of a flash of inspiration followed by innovative engineering and astute marketing. The author tells the story of this remarkable two-wheeler, from its Italian origins through 40 years of development, with anecdotes about the machines and the colourful characters involved with them.
