When it comes to 1970s TV icons, "The Fonz" was way above the rest...until he jumped the shark of course. It brought back many fond memories when I saw the leather jacket and motorcycle used by Henry Winkler in his portrayal of Arthur Fonzarelli at the San Diego Automotive Museum in Balboa Park. Every Tuesday I sat in front of the TV and watched "Happy Days," with its rose-colored glasses retelling of the 1950s.
The cycle on exhibit was one of three used in the filming of the show.
A closeup of his Triumph cycle. And no...you can't "sit on it."
If you're wanting to see this in person, you have until June 8th.
