This Thing is HUGE! This website has about 3,200 pages and about 75,000 photos. You'll find buildings, signs, and statues from all over the country. The biggest sections are Mid-Century Modern Buildings, Gas Stations, Eateries, and Signs. The focus is mostly on things that still exist from the 1920s-1970s. For more about this website and this obsession of mine, click on the About button in the yellow bar above.
Searching and Poking Around: If you are looking for something specific, a business name, or a certain city, try using the white keyword search box near the top left of any page. I use it all the time myself as the fastest way to find something. That way, you will also find things throughout my entire website for a particular city. If you're a systematic sort of person, you might want to explore my entire website via the sitemap. You also might want to explore the links in the yellow bar at the top of any page. My blog has photos of roadside stuff that generally does not appear here at this website. My Flickr stream contains a sampling of photos that you'll find here.
Signs Book: My book, Vintage Signs of America, came out in 2018. It's packed with great color photos and info. The publisher went out of business in 2023 but the book is still available online for now while supplies last or used at places like Amazon.
How You Can Help: Unless I'm on the road, I'm busy adding more photos and updating descriptions every day. I've been banging away at this website for more than 20 years now. If you have more information or updates about anything as well as tips about things that I might have missed, I'd love to hear from you. If you'd like to contribute to my madness, you can make a donation via Paypal.com through my email address (roadarch@outlook.com) or via the "Donate" button below. There are no annoying advertisements or clickbait at my website. The gas, vehicle maintenance, and other expenses gathering these photos do not come cheap. Your support is greatly appreciated!
