When the seventh and final season of the hit show Mad Men wrapped, AMC executives presented the main players with a special thank-you gift. According to The Hollywood Reporter, January Jones and Jon Hamm, among others, each received a brand new shiny Vespa with the Mad Men logo on it. Appropriately, the motor scooters were madly popular during the late 50’s and 1960’s- especially in Italy. We wonder if any of the stars will chance riding the compact bikes in Los Angeles traffic. Probably in a few years the scooters will turn up in Hollywood memorabilia auctions and bring a pretty penny.

so no wheelchair?
didnt use a stylist this night.
i believe mr. hamm could have used the services of a professional on this ocassion.
Actually Vespa scooters are ridden all over Los Angeles and like in Italy maneuver very well in city traffic….not so much for freeways.
These little scooters first became popular in the US with the release of the wonderful film Roman Holiday! And of course, college students love them. I think the stars who received them should auction them off for their favorite charities! 🙂
