Route 66 & Roadside Americana — The Icons That Built the American Highway

Nothing captures the spirit of American travel like the roadside advertising that lined Route 66. Motels with glowing neon arrows, gas stations with bold enamel shields, diners buzzing with real glass signs — they weren’t just markers on the road; they were symbols of freedom, exploration, and the open highway.

I grew up surrounded by this world. My father spent decades collecting original porcelain signs, restoring antique advertising, and preserving the history of mid-century America. Those long drives, those stories, and those signs shaped the way I see craftsmanship — and they’re the reason Porcelain Advertising exists today.

This collection brings that era back to life.

Every piece is built exactly the way the originals were: heavy steel, kiln-fired porcelain enamel, hand-poured glass neon, and the kind of bold color and gloss that defined 1930s–1960s roadside design. Whether you’re creating a Route 66-themed garage, building out a retro diner wall, enhancing a home bar, outfitting a boutique hotel, or adding emotional punch to a car museum, these signs deliver the atmosphere only true Americana can provide.

The golden age of the American road lives here — crafted with integrity, built to last, and ready to glow again.
