Title: Old Isetta photo

Not a very unusual microcar perhaps, but I love old photos of our treasures. I guess this car is long gone! The postcard currently is for sale on ebay.

Nicely spotted bob - I. Must pay more attention . After saying that. Trees pollute when burnt and none of my 4 automobiles have caused any pollution for an accumulated 156 years . Not something I am very proud of .
