  • Yesterday, we heard from avid Who fan Paul Kelly about the art collection he unwittingly inherited from his friend, who turned out to be John Davis, the artist of the pictures in the book, A Decade of The Who. Paul is now looking to display some of the art at events and has added to the collection with memorabilia including 3 replica Quadrophenia scooters. Solent News Now joined him showing his collection to antiques expert, John Cameron, himself passionate about mod scooters.

    Sting couldn't even ride a scooter. That's because he is not a mod he's just a fkn BELL BOY.

    I used to know the chap Kev Percival who actually owned and restored the true original of Jimmy’s LI. He actually found it in a garden in a house in Portsmouth and bought it for about £70.

    I was a young postman in brighton at the time.
    If any of my mates had been an extra in the film I`d have known about it.
    we used to watch the fight scenes on the beach from the top prom and the punch up at the bottom of East Street.

    The gs was obviously a px with the gs look a like kit on, as its well known, youd have to off your head to throw an original gs150/160 of a cliff lol , nice collection though, somebody who was looking for the pic of jimmy when the post office van hit him, the original black and white one is in the book you got with the original black and white quadrophenia album from back in 78/79

    Jimmys scoot in the post van scene was an Li special, round headlight not square & pretty sure only 3 sting scoots were built, just saying.

    • @gavinevans4711
      @gavinevans4711 4 роки тому

      I think you are right, Ian. It's got Special panels and a 50p headset. Looks like it's got a li mudguard though, so may be a Spanish 150 Special?
