Lambretta Scooter code 172. Size 840mm x 595mm - 33 x 23½ (A1)
The Lambretta was originally designed by Ferdinando Innocenti who had a
vision of cheap, reliable transport that afforded better weather
protection than a motorcycle. Production of his scooters began in 1947
and the first was known as Model A which was a tubular framework Heath
Robinson affair! However, 120 MPG was achieved which ensured its
success as petrol was in short supply. In 1949, Model B was produced
followed by Model C etc. The Innocenti Corporation continued to improve
its product. In 1952 Model 125 LD appeared with a top speed of 47 mph.
In 1954, Innocenti introduced a 150-cc engine followed in 1957/58 with
its Li 125/150 models. Our poster is an exact recreation of the
original and features a PAN AM pilot astride an LI 125/150 model circa
1959.
