Comfortably Cool. This is an image from an old matchbook cover, which I silkscreened as a 3-color print. I’m not sure what the original advertisement was for, so if anyone has any information, I’d love to know. . .

Whiting Brothers was established in 1926 as a chain of gasoline stations based in St. Johns and Holbrook, Arizona. At its peak, it operated more than a hundred filling stations (including at least forty on the former U.S. Route 66), fifteen motels and various truck stops under a slogan of "Quality gas for less.” #photosfromtheroad . . . #route66 #whitingbrothers #signgeeks #signsunited #gas #diesel #arizona #newmexico #rt66 #ipulledoverforthis #gas_food_lodging #everything_signage #abmlifeiscolorful #abmlifeisbeautiful #roadtrip #matthewehrmann #mpeart

As some of you may or may not know, in the past, I have been obsessed with the Oregon Lottery logo. Not this one however, the old one. I’m trying to embrace this new logo, but it just isn’t the same. But, since it often accompanies the signs I photograph, I have a feeling we will get friendly eventually. #photosfromtheroad . . . #portland #divebar #signsunited #signgeeks #neon #midcentury #ipulledoverforthis #gas_food_lodging #abmlifeiscolorful #abmlifeisbeautiful #clouds #pnw #pacificwonderland #oregonlottery #shipahoy #beer #wine #liquor #cocktail #matthewehrmann #mpeart

Roy’s in Amboy is one of the most photographed places on Route 66. While the town is mostly dead, tourists can be found at Roy’s year round taking in this perfect example of mid-century googie architecture. #photosfromtheroad . . . #route66 #roys #amboy #midcentury #midcenturymodern #roadtrip #neon #signgeeks #signsunited #cafe #motel #ipulledoverforthis #gas_food_lodging #signlanguage #googie #nationaltrailshighway #californiaroute66 #matthewehrmann #mpeart
The Palm Desert Lodge closed in 2008, but luckily the sign was saved and put on display. Thank you to all the preservationists out there making sure these important pieces of roadside history don’t end up lost forever. #photosfromtheroad. . . . #otherdesertcities #signsunited #signgeeks #joshuatree #bungalowintheboulders #yuccavalley #fathersday #neon #sign #motel #gas_food_lodging #midcentury palm desert #midcenturymodern #colortv #novacancy #neonlights #desert #desertlife🌵 #matthewehrmann #mpeart

I have always dreamed of having one of these original Color TV signs in my home, though now they hard to find and expensive. Maybe one day. 🤞 #photosfromtheroad . . . #signgeeks #signsunited #midcentury #midcenturymodern #newmexico #ipulledoverforthis #abmlifeiscolorful #googie #colortv #rca #roadtrip #matthewehrmann #mpeart
