Piatti Galleries

Galleries of photos and images! from then and now. plus technical info

During the 1950's the Piatti Scooter recieved it's share of publicity, and promotional material was abundant.
These days however, it is a little more difficult to get hold of. Thanks to the www and many collectors scattered over the globe, it has been possible to put this gallery together.

More recently there have been articles featuring the Piatti, but for copyright reasons these images are not available on this website.
