The BEST book on Roadside Americana
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Oh my. This book is wonderful. I have been a collector of postcards for 25 years of my hometown. I was just becoming interested in Roadside Americana (Gas Stations, Motels, Restaurants, and odd roadside attractions) from the 1920s to the early 1960s when I discovered Baeder's book in the 1980s. I bought it and immediately became addicted to Roadside postcards.This book is out-of-print now, but if you ever have a chance of buying the book...- buy it!! And what a great artist Baeder is. Some of his Roadside paintings are in the book also.j.k.
