Lambretta D/LD 125/150 & TV/LI Scooterlinea Book Set

Lambretta D/LD 125/150 tells the industrial and technical history of the Lambretta D/LD series, the classic Lambretta par excellence, the model that has represented the purest essence of the scooter “made in Italy," as told through invaluable archive materials.

The book includes previously unpublished photos and official documents discovered in the Innocenti archives along with accurate texts by Vittorio Tessera, the leading expert on the historic scooter in Italy and the world. With this model, Innocenti proved capable of conquering the national and international markets; exported throughout the world, the D/LD was a great success, loved and appreciated by thousands of users. Chapters dedicated to advertising, to the famous people who fell in love with it and to the marketing of the D and DL series around the world complete this latest title in the series that also includes the volumes Lambretta LUI, Lambretta TV/LI Series I and Lambretta TV/LI Scooterstyle Series III.
 

A book dedicated to a true milestone in the history of the Innocenti scooter: “Scooterlinea 1962”, a thoroughly revised Lambretta that was a protagonist on the worldwide scooter scene of the Sixties.

Technically known as the “Series III”, the new Lambretta was launched late in 1961, initially with the two 125 and 150 cc displacements, later joined by the 175 TV in the spring of 1962.

The third title in the series dedicated to the most important Lambrettas (which include the Lambretta Lui and the Lambretta TV/LI Series I), celebrates a model characterised by sleek and aggressive bodywork and equipped with a front disc brake and an extremely high level of fittings and finish. Written by Vittorio Tessera, the leading Lambretta historian, the book reviews the complete industrial, technical and social history of the Scooterlinea, drawing on hundreds of previously unpublished contemporary photos in black and white and colour.
