There's a lot to see in one place here in Elk City. The Old Town Museum complex houses several museums, including the National Route 66 Museum. Out front on Route 66 is a giant neon sign on an angle in the shape of a highway shield which reads "U.S. Route 66". I had to look closely at the picture above to verify that it was neon. Normally neon flaunts color and the paint is also vibrant. Here the sign is black and white, but that's probably for authenticity.
