The fool on the hill

Top trumpeter

I don't know how these 70s Top Trumps came into our house (ebay in a nostalgic moment maybe?) but as a lad my then girlfriend's brother had the same set and this card with a Ducati Desmo on it fired my desire, as a 17 year old, to own one. It is such a beautiful piece of Italian art. And the sound from that exhaust... Archangel Gabriel couldn't compete.
I ended up getting a 250 Mk3 when I was about 30 which turned out pretty nice after I'd spent lots of money on it. Eventually I part exchanged it plus a thousand pounds for this.
I reckon we both got a bargain.
I wonder where it is now.
KMD 221P. It just came to me so I wrote it down because I'll forget again.
