Since I absolutely love anything to do with Route 66, vintage road signs and ephemera, 1950’s diners and Americana…here are a few more pictures I’ve gathered. I think these are just so cool!
Oklahoma
Vintage ad for Papaburger (good ol’ A&W, it does not get better my friends…I miss the South!)
Tad’s Chicken n’ Dumplings in Troutdale, Oregon
The Steak n’ Shake in Springfield, Missouri
A cafe in Oklahoma…love the giant fiberglass figures, such an awesome relic!
Tacoma, Washington
Henry’s in Cicero, Illinois
Tad’s AND Steak and Shake…two of my favorites!
OK, this signage is all just too cool! Out here in N VA we have a Rt 66 but there is nothing quaint or charming about it, unfortunately!
Thank you for your nice comment on my Lady of the Lake. You know I’ve ‘thought’ about etsy, just not there yet. I appreciate the compliment
A road trip through there would be so fun
this makes me happy
and hello!
Nice pictures! Do you have a flickr site?
