The Royal Motel of Norwalk, Ohio is a relatively vintage looking marquee with what looks to be a cat figure crawling up its side. 01-01
The Old Orchard Motel is just spell binding in the winter-time. Check out the snow flakes all around. 01-01
Here's the sign for the Belleville Motel in Belleville, IL. This marquee appears to still be in great shape.
Here's an old motel sign that is barely standing up to the tests of time. This shell is located in Illinois. At one time, this sign proudly proclaimed that the motel offered TV and directed the wandering traveler to its office. Now, this sign just stands here rusting off the lonesome highway.
Linn's Motel near Herrin, Illinois features the fact that it's a heated motel court very prominently. It's seldom "seen advertised as big as the actual name." It's a real eye catcher, especially during these cold months.
Another Wisconsin treasure is the Friendship Motor Court. Instead of using an arrow, the shape of the marquee itself points toward the lodging area.
Here's the Soy City Motel of Illinois. This roadside motel sign
is still in great shape.
Check out the Alpine Lodge with its dual weight saving holes in its marquee. Nice reminder of a bygone era.
Looking for a layover at an old motel that's also "thrifty?" Then stop by and visit the Grand Thrifty Motel in Illinois.
9 The Wayfare Motel looks like a 1930's/40's marquee. Interesting to see how times have changed... you can get free Showtime here.
The Downers Grove Motel in Illinois sports a huge arrow. The marquee itself looks to be in great shape. It's always interesting to see a motel sign that advertises "color TV."
