Questo signore (Antonio Mellino), fa il rigattiere, mi ha concesso di fotografarlo. Per me è stato un onore! Da bambino credevo fosse un personaggio di fantasia, oggi mi sono ricreduto...C'è un'espressione a Napoli che si usa quando si vede qualcuno correre in moto o in macchina: Me pare Austino 'o pazzo (sembra Agostino il pazzo). Ma da dove nasce questa affermazione? Era l'estate del 1970 quando Antonio Mellino, appena diciottenne, fece delle strade di Napoli una pista di gran premio in sella alla sua Gilera 125 leggermente truccata. Era stato soprannominato “Agostino 'O Pazzo“, in onore di Giacomo Agostini campione del Motomondiale dell'epoca e 'o pazzo per il suo comportamento fuori dal normale.

Salvatore this is a stolen shot ...
For years I passed his unsuspecting shop. I always believed that the character was the result of popular imagination, as long as one day ....
Also this morning during our exit we moved to the area :-D
Thanks for the comment. Hello ;-)
