MEMORY LANE - NEXT EXIT

Welcome to Route 66 Chronicles where the neon still glows bright along Route 66, shiny new Studebaker cars roll from the factory in South Bend, the Edsel is the talk of the town, and tail fins represent the latest in automotive styling.

We at Route 66 Chronicles work hard to ensure your stroll down Memory Lane is a pleasant, enjoyable, and memorable one. In addition to regular posts by award winning author Jim Hinckley, there are numerous links to sites, including classic roadside locations, that will help in your endeavor to plan the ultimate trip along the Main Street of America and other legendary highways. In addition there are also a number of links to sites that provide technical information, as well as support, to keep your vintage car on the road.

We have also added a wide array of information about Kingman, Arizona, the self proclaimed "Heart of Historic Route 66", that is updated daily.

Before you leave meet the proprietor and learn about forthcoming projects by this author. Please take a moment to give your impressions, thoughts, and suggestions as to how we may make your visit more enjoyable.

A NEW YEAR, OLD IDEAS

A new year is upon us and I am dusting off a couple of old ideas. The print of the month feature introduced in 2011 proved to be quite popular and I have decided to bring it back for the new year.
The first print to be offered will be the illustration that heads this blog. A different print will be offered every month. Details including cost and ordering information will be provided by the end of the week.
Special orders for prints of photos that have appeared on this blog, or orders for custom sized prints, can also be filled. Please contact me in regard to specific needs.
Signed copies of Ghost Towns of Route 66, and other titles I have written are still available. If there is lag time between your order and the receipt of my order from the publisher, you will be notified. However, at this time I foresee no delays.
One last note. Before we get to far into the new year, I would like to say thank you for the input, the ideas, and suggestions in 2011.
