I took one look at it, and knew immediately.
“It’s a Peel P50,” I told them, like that explained anything at all to a well-adjusted adult.
But I knew. And boy, was I proud. I think he did a very good rendering of that peculiar, tiny car from the Isle of Man. I even knew exactly what picture he was imagining, and I like how it seems he put it on a road, complete with yellow center line.
That’s my boy.
