Got Any Motorcycles??

He obviously is an afficianado,
you ought to contact him and offer him a copy
of your image of the cover :)

He doesn't like he is "motocycling" though
just pedalling :)

I was scanning something else on the same page but thought these might be nice to show... they all have a great sense of motion and speed to them.

Here is one of 19 early motorcycle covers I am looking to sell to pay for the Vespa error stamp that is my avatar....

Here is one of Motorcycle stamp collectings harder ones to get.
It's a never offically issued Propganda label from 1942.
The bike is a Moto Guzzi single.

As a collector of "Any philatelic material that depicts a motorcycle, or part thereof, or name of manufacturer, recognizable as being of ITALIAN ORIGIN" I am well pleased to have this item which adds the make "DE STEFANI & CONTI" to my collection.

That brings the total number of Italian makes I have represented on postal items to 35.

Just got a new motorcycle item I rather like and thought I would share.... it's a cover from 1960 posted from Ducati with a Ducati meter mark and expresso sticker.

I collect.....
"Any philatelic material that depicts a motorcycle, or part thereof, or name of manufacturer, recognisable as being of ITALIAN ORIGIN."

Another nice one I got from Italy recently.... looks like a specimen meter mark as it has "00" as the postal value and no address....

Now up to 44 different makes!

Just for contrast here is another Ducati meter mark from 49 years later!

A new stamp from this year

And an interesting stamp it is!
Thanks for the post.

That bike is called a KTM 125 from Austria...
Their is more to that bikes story.... it is made using "parts" from an Italian GP 125 MV Agusta. To me it looks basically the same as the MV as if they have got an MV and done some small mods and called it a KTM to get their racing up and running fast. With it's Italian connections it comes under my collecting interest and I am after any postally used covers using this stamp.

AUSTRIA - Jan 1, 2012
