Massive brown-and-white highway guide sign directing travelers to Historic Route 66, the Mother Road that ran from Chicago to Santa Monica. In 1971, Federal Highway Administration designated brown signs like this one to mark places of cultural and recreational interest. “Historic Route 66” appears in bold mixed-case lettering above “NEXT RIGHT” in white reflective capitals, framed by a rounded white border on a deep brown field. Rivets and mounting holes run across the face, with great patina across the whole piece. Its long horizontal format makes it a strong statement piece over a sofa, along a hallway or garage wall, or in a restaurant, bar, or commercial space. Super cool piece of American roadtrip history.
