I have some tiny negatives that were taken with a miniature camera
that used 8mm film and probably a lens made from old Coke bottle scraps
polished on a pavement. Will try and get my Canonscan to do some prints
which I will send as soon as .

The email quoted
above is from a scammer.
Can you send me the scam link mentioned in the last email ... I deleted
the message by mistake and although I got the web site right couldn't find
the article you were referring to.

Order of play when I was at school
Garelli first on the scene in sports mode which was quickly demolished
by the Itom.
Maserati made a beautiful bike with flared megaphone exhaust and was
a real screamer but not as fast as the first two.
Conventional in style ( step thru') was the Zundapp Combinette ..an good favourite ... it started easily and ticked over like a clock
Ugly as sin but really expensive and powerful enough to carry two easily
... Kreidler Florian
Not first in the looks department was a range of excellent Sachs engined
mopeds with a sprinkling of NSU and Mobylette's
At the bottom of the pile were the clip-on friction drive Garelli Mosquito
( I would love to have one today) and Velo Solex .
Best of all was the Puch aircooled 49cc sounded great and went like
the clappers and never gave any trouble.
I could remember more!
