The Mother Road, America's Highway and Main Street of America are all synonymous when referring to the historically rich highway, Route 66. Stretching from Chicago to Los Angeles, this iconic road is now a popular cross-country road trip for many Americans. From the outset, public road planners intended U.S. 66 to connect the main streets of rural and urban communities along its course for the most practical of reasons: most small towns had no prior access to a major national thoroughfare. Officially, the numerical designation 66 was assigned to the Chicago-to-Los Angeles route in the summer of 1926. With that designation came its acknowledgment as one of the nation’s principal east-west arteries.

Metal signs were traditionally used by brand companies as a high-quality and durable advertising medium, as they embody longevity and quality, and transfer these values perfectly to the advertised product. These days, metal signs are considered a popular retro-item, with their old-school themes and rusty distressed appearances, offering the ideal opportunity for stylish decoration with a retro and vintage inspired look.
