The Lewis Motel’s original location was in Vinita, Oklahoma, along Route 66. The sign decided it was time for a change of scenery, and re-located to the desert. #photosfromtheroad . . . #otherdesertcities #signsunited #signgeeks #joshuatree #bungalowintheboulders #yuccavalley #springbreak #neon #sign #motel #gas_food_lodging #midcentury #midcenturymodern #colortv #vinita #route66 #novacancy #neonlights #desert #desertlife🌵 #matthewehrmann #mpeart

These photos of the Chief Seattle Motel are from 2009. The last slide shows how in 2018, a minivan struck the sign, permanently damaging it. If you are familiar with East Marginal Way, which navigates the industrial wasteland between Sea-Tac Intl. Airport and Seattle proper, this seems like a completely fitting end to a very, very sad motel. #photosfromtheroad . . . #signsunited #signgeeks #seattle #seatac #midcenturymodern #midcentury #washingtonstate #ipulledoverforthis #gas_food_lodging #everything_signage #chiefseattle #abmlifeisbeautiful #neon #roadtrip #seattleart #seattlewashington #marginalway #matthewehrmann #mpeart
A while back, I started painting and sanding on top of the photos I had printed on wood. Then I started silkscreening them as well. I’m not sure exactly where these are going, but I like them so far. #paintingsfromtheroad . . #photosfromtheroad #signgeeks #signsunited #abmlifeiscolorful #printsavailable #midcenturymodern #neon #stardust #painting #silkscreen #signlanguage #interiordesign #luxeathome #matthewehrmann #limitededition #linkinbio #mpeart
The Culver City Ice Rink opened in 1962, and closed 52 years later in 2014. The building now houses a Harbor Freight Tools, who were courteous enough to keep, and even refurbish the original Ice Skating sign. The first picture was a few days ago, the second one from a few years back after the rink had closed, before restoration. #photosfromtheroad . . #signgeeks #signhunters #signsunited #culvercity #iceskating #california #abmlifeiscolorful #sepulveda #icerink #harborfreight #matthewehrmann #mpeart

The Sun n’ Sands famous neon Zia is a Route 66 treasure. Unfortunately the motel itself is in decline, and has been closed for years. As of three years ago, the restaurant still made a decent club sandwich. #photosfromtheroad . . #signgeeks #signsunited #newmexico #santarosanewmexico #route66 #route66roadtrip #roadtrip #neon #sunnsand #midcentury #motel #abmlifeiscolorful #zia #printsavailable #linkinbio #matthewehrmann #mpeart
