MiniBike / Scooter Museum Photos

Had the privilege again this year to visit Herb Singe's private museum here in NJ...every year at Christmas time he opens the museum up to the members of the local Rotary Club and their invited guests in order to raise money for the local charities. He's been collecting for over 60 years, everything from brass era cars to pre-war toy trains, rare tether cars, nickelodeons, baby buggies...you name it. Anyway I took some shots of the "Scooter" section of the museum, thought you guy might enjoy seeing them......

Ok...I was gonna call B.S. on this last scooter.....




but I researched it when I got home and damned if they didn't make it......



Linda Mason sails along on an motorized scooter called the "McCoy Sportsman" in Hollywood, Calif., March 14, 1949. When given a slight push, the Sportsman travels at 8 mph with a 120-pound passenger aboard. (AP Photo/David F. Smith)

..imagine the lawsuits you'd have today riding this thing with that 2ft wooden propeller whirling around at 10,000 rpms......hahaha...get the hell outta the way!.....the good old days!
