“Route 66 in Illinois spans about 300 miles from downtown Chicago to the Chain of Rocks Bridge near St. Louis. Roughly 85% of the original highway is still drivable. It is a legendary stretch packed with 1950s diners, quirky roadside attractions, and rich history, paralleling much of modern-day Interstate 55.”

Celebrate Route 66’s 100 birthday with numerous items we have available at Urban Artifacts including new T’s, mugs and stickers and a wide selection of books and original postcards.

Father’s Day is right around the corner.
