Route 66 Souvenirs
Alan Rose

This is a collection of 24 die-cut paper buildings you can assemble - plus decals, bumper stickers, postcards, mini billboards, and other colorful highway devices to cut, fold, and paste. All are designed from photographic images, and all celebrate the 2,400-mile Chicago-to-Santa Monica stretch of Americana.

Rose fills in just enough blanks to keep things interesting: "The Blue Whale was created by Hugh Davis in 1971 as a wedding present for his wife. It was later opened as a tourist attraction along with the adjacent Reptile Kingdom and Alligator Ranch." Whales and alligators in Catoosa, Oklahoma? Remember, this was the highway that passed through jackalope country. Route 66 Souvenirs can provide hours of entertainment for kids young and old.
